Locally Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This phase I/II trial tests the safety and tolerability of an experimental personalized vaccine when given by itself and with pembrolizumab in treating patients with solid tumor cancers that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). The experimental vaccine is designed target certain proteins (neoantigens) on individuals' tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving the personalized neoantigen peptide-based vaccine with pembrolizumab may be safe and effective in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.

Background: A type of drug called monoclonal antibody immune checkpoint inhibitors are often used in cancer treatment. These drugs help the body s immune system fight cancer by blocking proteins that cause cancer cells to grow. One of these drugs (atezolizumab) is approved to treat certain cancers. Researchers want to find out if lower doses of this drug might provide the same benefit with fewer adverse effects. Objective: To test different doses and timing of atezolizumab for people with cancer. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with cancer that has spread locally or to other organs. They must be eligible for treatment with the study drug. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have blood tests and imaging scans. They will provide a sample of tissue from their tumor. Atezolizumab is administered through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. Participants will take this drug alone or combined with other drugs prescribed for their care. The first 2 treatments will be done per the FDA recommended dose and schedule. Before administering the second dose of the study drug, researchers will check the level of the drug in the participant s blood. Depending on those results, their 3rd dose will be scheduled 2 to 6 weeks later. For the 3rd dose of the study drug, participants will switch to the FDA minimum dosage. Dosages of any other drugs will not change. Researchers will continue to test the levels of the drug in participants blood before each treatment for 16 weeks. After that, these levels will be tested every 3 months. Study treatment may last up to 2 years.

This phase II trial tests how well giving Y-90 radioembolization, durvalumab, tremelimumab and zanzalintinib works for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) and that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Y-90 radioembolization is a therapy that injects radioactive particles directly into an artery that feeds liver tumors to cut off their blood supply. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab and tremelimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Zanzalintinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving Y-90 radioembolization, durvalumab, tremelimumab and zanzalintinib may be effective for treating unresectable and locally-advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

This phase II trial tests how well olanzapine works in managing cancer cachexia in patients experiencing esophagogastric, hepatopancreaticobiliary, colorectal, or lung cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) -associated appetite loss while receiving non-curative cancer therapy. Loss of appetite ("anorexia") in the setting of cancer is a key feature of "cachexia," a syndrome associated with loss of weight and muscle as well as weakness and fatigue. Olanzapine is a drug that targets key neurotransmitters (a type of molecule in the central nervous system that transmits messages to the rest of the body) that may stimulate appetite, restore caloric intake, minimize weight loss, and improve quality of life (QOL).

This is a multi-national, phase II, parallel-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-arm study designed to assess the efficacy and safety of SIRT-Y90 followed by atezolizumab plus bevacizumab \[study arm\], versus SIRT-Y90 followed by placebo \[control arm\] in patients with locally advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC).

This phase II trial tests whether atezolizumab in combination with a multi-kinase inhibitor (cabozantinib or lenvatinib) compared to multi-kinase inhibitor alone in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), has spread to has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic), for which the patient has received treatment in the past (previously treated). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cabozantinib and lenvatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving atezolizumab with cabozantinib or lenvatinib may kill more tumor cells in patients with liver cancer.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Holmium-166 (Ho-166) transarterial radioembolization (TARE) for treating patients with locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a common type of liver cancer. HCC is often linked to conditions like liver cirrhosis and viral hepatitis, with a poor prognosis for advanced stages. TARE involves delivering radioactive particles directly to liver tumors, sparing healthy tissue and providing targeted radiation. This study will include patients diagnosed with HCC who have received Holmium-166 TARE treatment between January 2010 and December 2024. Researchers will look at patient and tumor characteristics, side effects, how well the treatment works, and survival outcomes. The goal is to determine whether Holmium-166 TARE is a safe and effective treatment option for people with locally advanced HCC. The findings will help doctors better understand how this therapy can be used to treat liver cancer and whether it can improve survival rates for patients with this challenging disease.
