Identification of an Immune Single Cell Transcriptomic Profile of Responder and Non-responder Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients Treated With Immune-checkpoint Inhibitors

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

The study aims to analyze blood samples from patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who are receiving systemic treatment with immunotherapy. The objective is to determine whether treatment exposure leads to changes in the transcriptomic patterns of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), if these changes are associated with treatment response, and whether certain pre-treatment transcriptomic signatures can predict response to treatment. As an exploratory objective, PBMCs derived from patients exposed to immune checkpoint inhibitors will be co-cultured with their paired tumor cells in organoid cultures. This aims to assess whether these preclinical 3D models correlate with clinical outcomes.
