Summary

Clearing potential intrahepatic metastasis to prevent early recurrence after liver cancer treatment, there are no effective interventions so far. For secondary metastatic cancer, only the lesions visible under ultrasound can be used, one by one for local ablation and chemotherapy, but people may develop new tumor lesions. Therefore, the treatment of potential tumors and recurrent tumors after ablation is a very important clinical issue.

Detailed description

Clearing potential intrahepatic metastasis to prevent early recurrence after liver cancer treatment, there are no effective interventions so far. For secondary metastatic cancer, only the lesions visible under ultrasound can be used, one by one for local ablation and chemotherapy, but people may develop new tumor lesions. Therefore, the treatment of potential tumors and recurrent tumors after ablation is a very important clinical issue. Therefore, this study will include primary liver cancer, as well as secondary metastatic malignant liver cancer, such as colorectal cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, and other cancers with a high incidence in Chinese patients, and detection of immune cells by surgery, and through various biomarkers to explore its mechanism and efficacy.

Conditions

Interventions

TypeNameDescription
BIOLOGICALimmunotherapy with NivolumabAfter subjects had received radiofrequency ablation for two weeks, they were performed by immunotherapy with Nivolumab 200mg.
PROCEDURERadiofrequency AblationThe most commonly used local ablation is radiofrequency ablation. In this operation, a radio frequency probe is used to insert the liver cancer under ultrasound or computer tomography guidance, and then the radio frequency waves generated by the current oscillations locally heat the high temperature, causing the liver cancer cells to die.
