Seravue Validation Study for Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Diagnosis

Korábbi kezelés

• The patient has previously been diagnosed with a primary liver cancer or any cancer that has metastasized.
• The patient has participated in an interventional clinical study within 30 days prior to screening in which an experimental treatment was administered.
• History of solid nodule on baseline ultrasound (i.e., lesion 1cm or greater) within 9 months prior to consent without subsequent diagnostic multi-phase CT/MRI demonstrating benign nature
• AFP >20 ng/mL within 6 months prior to consent, in the absence of a contrast-enhanced multi-phase CT or MRI (before or after) in the past year demonstrating lack of suspicious liver lesions.
  • If the AFP is >20 ng/mL during the study, the patient should undergo a contrast-enhanced multi-phase CT or MRI. if the patient has consistent elevations that are not increasing, repeat diagnostic testing will be left to the discretion of the investigator or the faculty.
• History of LR-4, LR-5, or LR-M on multi-phase CT or contrast-enhanced MRI prior to consent
• Actively listed for liver transplantation

Más betegség

• Any health condition or other reason which, in the opinion of the investigator, would prelude study participation.
• History of Fontan associated liver disease or cardiac cirrhosis

Egyéb

• A patient who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from this study:

• The patient is unable or unwilling to submit to phlebotomy for testing or undergo ultrasound or other diagnostic imaging such as contrast-enhanced CT or MRI as recommended by AASLD standard of care guidelines.
• The patient would not routinely be recommended for HCC surveillance.
• The female patient is pregnant or plans to become pregnant during the study.

• A patient must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible for this study:
• The patient is willing and able to provide signed informed consent.
• The patient is aged ≥21to ≤84 years.
• The patient is willing to undergo phlebotomy and provide blood samples for future biomarker analysis.
• The patient is willing and able to undergo regularly scheduled onsite liver cancer surveillance by ultrasound and AFP and any resulting axial imaging such as computed tomography (CT, with or without contrast), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or ultrasound per the standard of care guidelines and study protocol schedule.
• The patient has been diagnosed with hepatic cirrhosis of any etiology (both viral and non-viral), or Hepatitis B Virus (HBV). This includes HBV patients with pre-existing cirrhosis prior to antiviral therapy or other treatments leading to fibrosis regression who continue to be at risk.

• The patient has been diagnosed with HBV without cirrhosis.
• HBV will be defined by either a positive blood test for HBsAg, quantitative HBsAg, HBeAg OR detectable HBV DNA prior to initiating antiviral therapy.
