Texas Hepatocellular Carcinoma Consortium (THCCC) Project 5

Project 5 of the Texas HCC Consortium (THCCC) is a comparative effectiveness pragmatic randomized control trial (RCT) of outreach strategies to increase hepatocellular cancer (HCC) surveillance process completion among a socioeconomically and racially diverse cohort of Texans with cirrhosis. Through this project the investigators will implement and evaluate system-level mailed outreach interventions to identity at-risk patients with cirrhosis, promote HCC surveillance, and ensure timely follow-up of tests at UT Southwestern (UTSW) Medical Center, Parkland Health and Hospital System (PHHS), and the Houston Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Center. The study population will include adult patients with documented or unrecognized cirrhosis and at least one outpatient clinic visit in year prior to randomization. Patients will be identified using an EMR-enabled case identification algorithm. The investigators will randomize 3000 patients (1500 per arm) identified by this algorithm to: usual care, with opportunistic visit-based HCC surveillance (Group 1); or, mailed HCC surveillance outreach with patient education and patient navigation services (Group 2).

Regorafenib Plus Pembrolizumab in Patients With Advanced or Spreading Liver Cancer Who Have Been Previously Treated With PD-1/PD-L1 Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people suffering from liver cancer which may have spread to nearby tissue and is unlikely to be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC). Before a treatment can be approved for people to take, researchers do clinical trials to better understand its safety and how it works. In this trial, the researchers will learn more about the trial treatment, regorafenib, in a small number of participants. They will study the results when the trial treatment is taken with another cancer treatment called pembrolizumab. There will be 2 parts to this trial. The part 1 (pilot phase) will include about 52 men and women. The part 2 (expansion phase) will include about 67 men and women. All of the participants will have HCC and will be aged 18 years or older. All of the participants will have tried other treatments that did not help their HCC. These other treatments (PD-1/PD-L1 Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors) are designed to work by stopping the activity of certain proteins in the immune system thought to play a role in HCC. During both parts of the trial, the participants will take regorafenib and receive pembrolizumab. In the pilot phase, there will be 2 groups of participants. The group that each participant joins will be based on the treatment they already received for their HCC. The researchers will review the results in each group to learn if regorafenib and pembrolizumab are helping one group of participants more than others. Outcome of this review will determine the population to be treated in the expansion phase.

Start: February 2021

Transarterial Embolization Alone Versus Drug-Eluting Beads Chemoembolization for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Developed in Japan in the 1980s, TACE became the most frequent treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with preserved hepatic function after 2002, when two radiochemotherapies (RCTs) showed survival benefits for HCC patients who underwent conventional Lipiodol-based TACE (cTACE). Nowadays, nearly half of HCC patients undergo this procedure during their clinical history. In the last ten years, cTACE has been challenged by an alternative procedure, drug-eluting beads-TACE (DEB-TACE), after the introduction of calibrated embolizing microspheres loaded with a chemotherapeutic agent. DEB-TACE is considered to be less toxic and better standardized than cTACE, with reported no differences in patient survival. Since 2006, DEB-TACE has become the standard in many centers worldwide. Though, the need of adding doxorubicin to small beads embolization alone (TAE) remains unsettled. Though cTACE/DEB-TACE and TAE have been compared in several RCTs, no study demonstrated a clear survival benefit associated with the former. Our study aims to compare first-line DEB-TACE and TAE on a random sample of HCC with the hypothesis that the addition of drug to embolization with small size beads is not associated with a survival benefit when compared to embolization alone performed with tiny calibrated microspheres. HCC is considered a chemo-resistant tumor and to date there is no clear evidence of benefits in associating anticancer agents to TAE. On the other hand, the optimal size of embolic agents has still to be defined. A comparative evaluation of TACE and TAE is essential for two additional reasons: a) it is still unclear whether side effects following embolization procedures are related to the embolization itself, to drug addition or both; b) DEB-TACE procedure is more expensive than TAE and, given the current attention on cancer-related health care cost control, identification of opportunities for cost savings in HCC treatments of an increasingly common cancer would be valuable.

RFA Using Gradual RF Energy Delivery Mode With Octopus Electrodes

The investigators intend to perform RFA therapy on HCC less than 4 cm in size using octopus electrode, double alternating unipolar high-frequency transmission mode and gradual high-frequency energy loading mode, and to find out the therapeutic results. The primary evaluation variable is the ideal technical success rate for securing a safety margin of 5 mm or more around the tumor on the CT obtained immediately after the procedure, and the secondary evaluation variable is the volume of the cauterization lesion per unit time measured on the CT obtained immediately after the procedure, The local tumor recurrence rate, survival rate and disease-free survival rate of 12 months after the procedure, the presence or absence of multiple recurrences within the same segment, the actual procedure time, and the incidence of complications associated with the procedure are examined. The performance of RFA therapy of HCC using the Octopus electrode and gradual high-frequency energy transfer mode is compared with that of the existing Octopus electrode and RFA therapy using the basic maximum high-frequency energy transfer mode using historic cohort.
