Trial Outcomes & Findings for Lipiodol as an Imaging Biomarker in Patients With Primary and Metastatic Liver Cancer (NCT NCT01877187)

NCT ID: NCT01877187

Last Updated: 2020-04-15

Results Overview

Lipiodol deposition in the tumor will be measured using non contrast CT. The images from the non contrast CT will also be correlated with RECIST response separately using contrast CT, MRI and PET imaging. Response rates taken at 30 days, 90 days, 180 days. Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions Partial Response (PR): \>= 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR

Lipiodol
Lipiodol, 10cc per TACE. Lipiodol: Lipiodol is used as a carrier for chemotherapy agents and also as an occlusion agent. In TACE procedures, Lipiodol is mixed with the chemotherapy agent(s) and delivered to the tumor via the hepatic artery, causing necrosis of the targeted tumor(s).

Lipiodol, 10cc per TACE. Lipiodol: Lipiodol is used as a carrier for chemotherapy agents and also as an occlusion agent. In TACE procedures, Lipiodol is mixed with the chemotherapy agent(s) and delivered to the tumor via the hepatic artery, causing necrosis of the targeted tumor(s).
Lipiodol (Non-HCC)
n=14 Participants
Lipiodol, 10cc per TACE. Lipiodol: Lipiodol is used as a carrier for chemotherapy agents and also as an occlusion agent. In TACE procedures, Lipiodol is mixed with the chemotherapy agent(s) and delivered to the tumor via the hepatic artery, causing necrosis of the targeted tumor(s).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

Population: Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to estimate survival rate% at 6 months. Subjects are censored if survival is unknown at time point due to loss to followup.

Measure the association between baseline Lipiodol deposition and the 6-month survival rate by estimating median survival for each stratum, and by testing for homogeneity using a logrank test if hazards are proportional.
