Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cancer in the world and the most common primary liver cancer. There are a variety of therapies for treatment of HCC; among them, transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is one of the most commonly used treatment modalities. TACE induces ischemic
This study is to enroll 30 patients in each type of cancer. Each patient will be vaccinated with P.vivax-infected red blood cells containing approximately 0.1-1.0 × 10^7 Plasmodium parasites and be observed for the exact infection time, parasitemia condition and infection course; principal clinical
Hereditary Tyrosinemia type 1 (HT-1) is a rare genetic disorder in which the newborn child lacks the ability to break down the amino acid tyrosine. As a result of this deficiency, toxic sub-stances build up in the blood and can cause liver failure, kidney dysfunction and neurological problems. There
After general anesthesia, almost 90% patients have lung atelectasis. The lung atelectasis persisted even after the surgery, and caused post operative complication, for example: fever, pleural effusion, hypoxemia, pneumonia, and respiratory failure. So, how to improve lung function after the surgery
Chronic hepatitis B is a long term condition caused by infection of the body with the hepatitis B virus (HBV). This infection often results in inflammation or scarring of the liver and can eventually lead to liver cirrhosis and liver failure. These infections are also one of the major causes of the
To date, purely pharmacological approaches have failed to address what is essentially a threefold challenge: (i) to deliver therapeutically significant concentrations of active agents to the tumour vasculature while minimizing off target effects; (ii) to release the therapeutic agent 'on-demand' at
1.1 Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and standard treatment HCC is the third most common cause of cancer death globally. It is also the second cause of cancer mortality in Korea, despite the incidence of HCC was fifth. The most important cause of this discrepancy is connected with the fact that the
The Study Drugs:
Bevacizumab is designed to block the growth of blood vessels that supply nutrients necessary for tumor growth. This may prevent or slow down the growth of cancer cells.
Erlotinib hydrochloride is designed to block the activity of a protein found on the surface of many tumor cells
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women in both the United States and the world. Despite a variety of hormonal, cytotoxic and biologic approaches, a significant number of tumors will recur in the chest wall and axillary area following primary treatment. Any local recurrence of breast
Viral infections are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. Viruses have also been identified as the probable cause of a number of malignancies including hepatocellular carcinoma and cervical carcinoma. The purpose of this study is to identify novel viruses (or known
Liver cancer growth may be affected by a protein in the body called "vascular epidermal growth factor" (VEGF). A drug that blocks VEGF may be an effective treatment for liver cancer. Avastin is designed to block VEGF. Erlotinib hydrochloride is an investigational drug believed to work on cancer
The major aims of this study are to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of lamivudine therapy and the possibility of stopping therapy in a cohort of patients with chronic hepatitis B who have a maintained response to treatment. Lamivudine is a nucleoside analogue with potent activity against
