Liver Cancer: Understanding

Liver Cancer: Overview

Cancer is a disease in which cells in the body grow out of control. When cancer starts in the liver, it is called liver cancer. Each year in the United States, about 25,000 men and 11,000 women get liver cancer, and about 19,000 men and 9,000 women die from the disease. The percentage of Americans who get liver cancer rose for several decades, but is now declining. Liver cancer is more common in other parts of the world than in the United States. Primary liver cancer, or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is the fifth most common cancer in males and the seventh most common cancer in females, and is the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the primary cancer of the liver, is derived from hepatocytes and occurs in more than approximately 80% of cases of liver cancer. The HCC carcinogenesis is often associated with liver cirrhosis resultant from chronic liver diseases as chronic hepatitis, HBV or HCV infection, and autoimmune hepatitis. Other risk factors include excessive alcohol consumption, NASH, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), exposure and ingestion of aflatoxin, diabetes mellitus, tobacco, and sporadically genetic diseases such as alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, hemochromatosis, tyrosinemia, porphyria and Wilson’s disease.

The common symptoms associated with liver cancer includes weakness and tiredness, pain in the abdomen, swelling of the abdomen due to a build-up of fluid (ascites), pain in the right shoulder, appetite loss and feeling sick, weight loss, yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice), pale bowel motions, fever. Liver cancer symptoms are more likely to appear as the cancer grows or becomes advanced.

Tests to diagnose both liver cancer and secondary cancer of the liver include blood tests, ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, PET-CT scan, biopsy. The most common treatments for primary liver cancer are tumor ablation and chemotherapy delivered directly into the cancer. The most common treatments for secondary cancer in the liver are chemotherapy or a combination of surgery and chemotherapy other options is Tumor ablation. Chemotherapy, Biological therapy, Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) this is used for both primary and secondary cancers in the liver when the tumors can't be removed with surgery. Endoscopic stent placement used when the cancer in the liver has obstructed the bile duct and bile has then built up in the liver, it may be recommended that a stent (thin tube) is placed in liver to drain the bile and ease symptoms.

“Liver Cancer - Pipeline Insight, 2024 report outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the mechanism of action. A detailed picture of the Liver Cancer pipeline landscape is provided which includes the disease overview and Liver Cancer treatment guidelines. The assessment part of the report embraces, in depth Liver Cancer commercial assessment and clinical assessment of the pipeline products under development.

Liver Cancer Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Liver Cancer report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Liver Cancer Emerging Drugs

Namodenoson: Can-Fite BioPharmaNamodenoson is an oral small molecule drug generically known as Cl-IB-MECA (2-chloro-N6-(3-iodobenzyl)-adenosine-5'- N-methyl-uronamide), a highly specific and selective agonist at the A3 adenosine receptor (A3AR). Namodenoson's mechanism of action is mediated via deregulation of the NF-?B and Wnt signal transduction pathways, resulting in the apoptosis of tumor cells. The protective effect of Namodenoson is mediated via down-regulation of the NF-kB signal transduction pathway and preventing apoptosis. Namodenoson has a potent anti-cancer effect, particularly against hepatocellular carcinoma, and anti-inflammatory activity demonstrated in pre-clinical animal models of liver inflammation. The safety of Namodenoson has been demonstrated in preclinical studies, and Phase I and Phase II clinical studies demonstrating a favorable safety profile. Currently, the drug is in Phase III stage of its development for the treatment of advanced liver Cancer.

YIV-906: YivivaYIV-906 (also PHY906 or KD018) is a therapeutic candidate comprised of a proprietary cGMP botanical extract of four herbs inspired by a traditional Chinese medicine formulation used for over a millennium. YIV-906 has the potential to be developed as a platform oncology therapeutic when administered in combination with chemotherapy, immunotherapy and radiation therapies, in multiple cancer indications. YIV-906 has been shown to enhance immune function in the tumor microenvironment (by polarizing M1 macrophages and activating T cells), protect the gastrointestinal tract (by inhibiting inflammation via IL-6, NF-kappa-B, COX2, and iNOS pathways) and promote intestinal tissue repair (by increasing activity and expression of components of the Wnt signaling pathway). YIV-906 has been observed to enhance the anti-tumor activity of sorafenib in preclinical models of hepatocellular carcinoma and has shown promise in preliminary clinical studies in liver, pancreatic, colorectal and rectal cancers. Currently, the drug is in Phase II stage of its clincal trial for the treatment of liver cancer.

TTI-101: Tvardi TherapeuticsTTI-101 is an orally bioavailable, small-molecule inhibitor of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), a transcription factor whose upregulation and activation governs many hallmarks of cancer, inflammation, and fibrosis. Preclinically, TTI-101 has demonstrated an excellent pharmacokinetic profile, potency in attenuating pY705-STAT3 phosphorylation, and efficacy in inhibiting tumor growth in xenograft and syngeneic tumor models. Currently, the drug is in Phase II stage of clinical trial.

STP707: SirnaomicsSTP707, our second key product, is in early-stage development for the treatment of solid tumors, liver cancer. STP707 is an intravenously administered TGF-ß1 and COX-2 inhibitor that leverages an RNAi-based response using the company’s proprietary PNP delivery platform. Currently, the drug is in Phase I stage of its clinical trial for the treatment of liver cancer.
