NCT02929082

Brief Summary

FORCE project aims to measure actives forces of malignant tumor by magnetic resonance force (FRM). Two main forces are considered as key indicators of therapeutic response and metastatic potential: interstitial force and traction force at the interface cell/tumor. Biomarkers of these forces will be developped using direct images of magnetic resonance force (FRM). Efficiency of these non-invasive biomarkers will be evaluated through their capacity to predict tumoral environment invasion, notably micro-vascular invasion, and therapeutical results in Hepatocellular Cancer (HCC). Principal criteria will be

  1. 1.micro-vascular invasion assessed by pathological examination of surgical pieces (gold standard).
  2. 2.interstitial force and traction force at the cell/tumor interface assessed by FRM.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Tumoral environment invasion assessed by the presence of microvascular invasion of the tumor capsule after pathological examination of the surgical pieces

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • therapeutical results of TACE assessed by percentage of nodular necrosis in HCC after pathological examination of the explant liver

    12 months

  • Interstitial force and traction force at the cell/tumor interface assessed by FRM

    12 months

Study Arms (3)

Group 1 : volunteer patient

EXPERIMENTAL

Group 1 will be constituted of 20 volunteer patients coming for abdominal MRI with no known hepatic disease, in order to determine the feasibility of FRM . A 5-minute- additional sequence to measure FRM will be done for the volunteers.

Radiation: IRM with a 5-minute- additional sequence to measure FRM

Group 2 : patient with resectable HCC

EXPERIMENTAL

Group 2 will be constituted of 60 patients with resectable HCC eligible for surgery. This group will enable to evaluate the gold standard. A 5-minute- additional sequence to measure FRM will be done while MRI sequence.

Radiation: IRM with a 5-minute- additional sequence to measure FRM

Group 3 : patient with HCC eligible for TACE

EXPERIMENTAL

Group 3 will be constituted of 50 patients with HCC eligible for transplant with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) treatment as pending treatment before transplant. This groups will enable to evaluate the efficiency of TACE through the necrosis percentage in treated HCC. A 5-minute- additional sequence to measure FRM will be done while MRI sequence

Radiation: IRM with a 5-minute- additional sequence to measure FRM

Interventions

IRM with a 5-minute- additional sequence to measure FRM for patients in group 1,2 and 3
