About this study

Official title: Phase 1,Single-blind, Randomized, Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectivity of TACE Therapy of HCC(Hepatocellular Carcinoma) With Blocking Tumor Blood Temporarily and Enhancing Perfu

According to radiology imaging, the patients of HCC are divided into two groups(hypovascular tumor group and moderately vascular tumor group). Every group is divided into TACE therapy with balloon catheter subgroup and regular TACE therapy subgroup. Patients take the TACE therapy each 45 days, and have MRI diffusion examine or CT one week before next therapy. All objects are observed until the end event happening or in the group for 6 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing balloon catheter in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (time frame: 2010). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Apr 2016.
