Brief Title: Lipiodol-TACE With Idarubicin for Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Official Title: Transarterial Chemoembolization With Lipiodol-Idarubicin Emulsion in the Treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: a Prospective, Multicenter, Real-world Study
Study ID: NCT05280444
Brief Summary: The purpose of this real-world study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lipiodol-TACE with idarubicin for hepatocellular carcinoma.
Detailed Description: Idarubicin is a DNA topoisomerase II inhibitor that promotes DNA strand breakage, trapping cells in the G2 phase of the cell cycle and inducing DNA cleavage and cell apoptosis. At the same time, it can be inserted between the DNA base pairs and produce free radicals, thus breaking the DNA double helix structure and inhibiting the extension, replication and transcription of DNA strands. Preclinical studies have shown that idarubicin has higher antitumor activity than epirubicin, especially against SUN-449 human hepatoma cells. In recent years, domestic and foreign scholars have conducted a series of explorations in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma with lipiodol-idarubicin emulsion, and have obtained positive results. This proepective, multicenter real-worldstudy aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lipiodol-TACE with idarubicin in Chinese HCC patients.
