Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

It is a prospective, non-randomized, single-arm cohort study. A total of 10 patients will be included in this study. Based on standardized treatment, the treatment of bioartificial liver device will be applied 24-48 hours after extensive hepatectomy. In order to evaluate the security and effectiveness of the device, liver function, liver volume, the incidence of liver failure and other results will be analyzed.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: hiHep bioartificial liver therapy
Early Phase 1

Detailed Description

Include large-scale hepatectomy patients who meet the Inclusion criteria into the experimental group. Patient will be sent to ICU monitoring after surgery , the investigators will evaluate the blood routine, liver and kidney function, blood coagulation function, and immune inflammation indicators on the first day after surgery, and large veins will be temporarily indwelled within 24-48 hours Hemodialysis tube, then take artificial liver treatment which lasts 6-9h, follow-up test results on the 1st day, 3rd day, 7th day, 1 month and 3 months about blood routine, liver and kidney function, coagulation function, blood ammonia, Immune inflammation indicators, imaging examinations (CT or MR) at 7 days, 1 month and 3 months after treatment, to evaluate the recovery of liver function and liver regeneration after artificial liver treatment.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: extensive hepatectomy patient

hiHep bioartificial liver therapy

Biological: hiHep bioartificial liver therapy
HiHep cell bioartificial liver treatment was performed 24-48 hours after extensive hepatectomy. Temporary hemodialysis tube for large vein (jugular vein or femoral vein) is indwelled before treatment. Before treatment, prepare hiHeps-BAL in a biological safety cabinet that meets clinical standards, connect the corresponding tubing to the Jianfan DX-10 blood purification machine, and prefill with heparin saline. Half an hour before treatment, the patient was pre-heparinized (heparin about 600iu) and dexamethasone to prevent allergic reactions. The patient enters the ICU, the monitor is connected to the corresponding pipeline, the arterial pump 120-160ml/min, the slurry pump 30-40ml/min, the circulating pump 75-100ml/min, the duration is 6-9h.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The incidence of adverse events (safety and tolerability). [3 months after therapy]

    Record adverse events (AE), serious adverse events (SAE), and AEs (TEAE) that occurred during treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Patient's recovery of liver function [1day,3day,7day,1month,3 months after therapy]

    Through child-pugh liver function grading standard and changes in ALT, AST, AKP, r-GGT, TBil, DBil, ALB to evaluate liver function.

  2. Rate of liver proliferation [7day,1month,3 months after therapy]

    Remaining liver growth rate (calculation of residual liver volume based on CT three-dimensional reconstruction).

  3. Incidence of liver failure [1day,3day,7day,1month,3 months after therapy]

    Use Guidelines for The Diagnosis and Treatment of Liver Failure (exclude liver failure caused by surgical hemodynamic problems).

  4. Complication rate [1day,3day,7day,1month,3 months after therapy]

    Such as pleural effusion, hydrops abdominis, hemorrhage, bile leakage.

  5. Immunoinflammatory index [1day,3day,7day,1month,3 months after therapy]

    Changes in PCT, hCRP, immune globulin (IgA, IgM, IgG), complement (C3, C4) after the treatment.

  6. Renal function [1day,3day,7day,1month,3 months after therapy]

    Record the changes in creatinine and urea nitrogen, calculate GFR through MDRD or CKD-EPI formula to evaluate renal function by classification standards for renal insufficiency.

  7. Electrolyte level [1day,3day,7day,1month,3 months after therapy]

    Changes in the concentration of Na+, K+, Cl+, Ca+ in blood before and after treatment.
