Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization (TACE) in Combination With Arsenic Trioxide Versus TACE in the Treatment of Middle-advanced Primary Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Patients
A Prospective Multicenter Randomized Controlled Open-label Trial of Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization (TACE) in Combination With Arsenic Trioxide Versus TACE in the Treatment of Middle-advanced Primary Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Patients
調査の概要
詳細な説明
Primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common types of cancer and accounts for significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Notably, more than half of the new HCC cases and deaths develop in China. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) has been proposed as the first-line therapeutic strategy for the treatment of patients with unresectable HCC. However, TACE has several limitations itself which might be potentially associated with tumor metastasis and relapse.
Recent studies have demonstrated that arsenic trioxide (As2O3) can act as the first-line therapeutic option in the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia. Thereafter, several small studies in China showed promising clinical benefits when As2O3 is administrated among the HCC patients. With these preliminary results, the investigators are planning to carry out a multicenter randomized controlled trial through which to explore the potential efficacy and safety of adjuvant As2O3 treatment for HCC patients.

実験的:TACE plus Arsenic Trioxide
Patients in this group are to receive a single dose of TACE treatment on day 1, followed by arsenic trioxide at 10 mg/day for 14 days (day 8-21).
TACE treatment is repeated every 9 weeks while arsenic trioxide every 3 weeks for treatment duration of 27 weeks.
At least 3 cycles of arsenic trioxide are administrated.
|
After the puncture of femoral artery via Seldinger method, a catheter was inserted and digital celiac axis or hepatic arteriography performed.
Then a microcatheter was used to infuse chemotherapeutic agent (30 to 60 mg of pirarubicin) mixed with 5 to 20 mL of Lipiodol Ultra-Fluid.
Embosphere microspheres (size of 100 to 300 um) were inserted for embolization.
Arsenic trioxide 10 mg is put into 500 ml saline solution and then administrated by continuous intravenous drip for 5 hours during a treatment day.
