NCT05534906

Brief Summary

The SELINA study will recruit 200 patients with cirrhosis and small HCC and 50 patients with HCC but without cirrhosis (most of whom are expected to have FLD). Blood, urine and liver tissue samples (where available) will be collected for laboratory analysis. In a subgroup of patients (N=80, around 64 patients with HCC with liver cirrhosis and around 16 patients with HCC without liver cirrhosis), additional magnetic resonance liver imaging will be performed. The findings of the SELINA study aim to identify biomarkers that can be used to detect liver cancer at the earliest possible time, something we expect will increase the survival rate of HCC.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Biomarkers associated with small HCC (Early detection [EDx] biomarkers)

    Classification performance metrics of EDx biomarkers, in cirrhosis patients with small HCC compared to non-HCC cirrhosis patients

    Throughout study to completion; up to 5 years

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Prognostic ability of Early Detection (EDx) bio-markers

    Throughout study to completion; up to 5 years

  • Whether combinations of EDx tests improve the diagnostic and prognostic performance

    Throughout study to completion; up to 5 years

  • Proportion of patients with HCC events according to time since treatment with curative intent.

    Throughout study to completion; up to 5 years

Study Arms (3)

Small HCC with Cirrhosis

200 patients diagnosed with small HCC (as defined in Eligibility Criteria) and cirrhosis

Other: Blood & Urine Samples

Small HCC without Cirrhosis

50 patients diagnosed with small HCC (as defined in Eligibility Criteria) but without cirrhosis

Other: Blood & Urine Samples

Imaging Subgroup

In a subgroup of patients (N=80, around 64 patients with HCC with liver cirrhosis and around 16 patients with HCC without liver cirrhosis), additional magnetic resonance liver imaging \& elastography will be performed

Other: Imaging

Interventions

Blood and urine samples will be collected to help identify biomarkers that can be used to detect liver cancer at the earliest possible time

Study Population

Participants diagnosed with small HCC with cirrhosis (N=200) or with HCC but without cirrhosis (N=50) aged 18 years and above

You may qualify if:

  • Participant is willing and able to give informed consent for participation in the study.
  • Male or Female aged 18 years or above.
  • Diagnosed with small HCC (Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer Staging Criteria (BCLC) stage 0/A; 1-3 nodules \<3cm, preserved liver function, performance status 0) with liver cirrhosis from any aetiology
  • Diagnosed with small HCC (as above) and without cirrhosis
  • Diagnosis of small HCC shown or confirmed within 3 months of study Visit 1
  • Patients with a diagnosis of HCC that was fully ablated or resected more than 6 months ago and now presenting with a new diagnosis of HCC in a different site in the liver may be included in the study
  • Histological confirmation is required to establish the diagnosis of HCC in patients without cirrhosis (imaging alone is not considered sufficient to establish the diagnosis of HCC).

You may not qualify if:

  • HCC with liver cirrhosis at BCLC stage B/C
  • Participants of the Pearl study
  • Patients who have had a previous diagnosis of HCC followed by therapy, and now have a recurrence at the same site in the liver
  • Patients who have received HCC specific therapy 3 months prior to study visit 1 (including resection, ablation \[microwave/radiofrequency\]), transarterial chemoembolization \[TACE\], select internal radiation therapy \[SIRT\] or stereotactic body radiation therapy \[SBRT\] 3, chemotherapy, immune modulators and other experimental therapies).
  • \. Any contra-indication to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) (e.g. claustrophobia, metal implants/fragments, implants, pregnancy, other conditions the scanner operator deems unsafe for MR scanning).
