Ultrasound tumor treatment tracking study
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study tracks patients who receive histotripsy, a non-invasive ultrasound treatment that breaks down tumors, to see how well it works and how safe it is over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older
- You must be receiving histotripsy as part of your standard care at UCSF
- You must be able to give your own consent to participate
- Your doctor must refer you to the study

This study tests a new, noninvasive treatment called histotripsy that uses sound waves to destroy small liver tumors. It is for people whose liver cancer hasn't spread much and who haven't had success with or can't have surgery or other standard treatments.
This trial tests a focused ultrasound therapy called histotripsy to destroy liver tumors that are close to major blood vessels and cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this non-invasive approach is safe and effective for tumors that are otherwise hard to treat.
This trial tests a non-surgical ultrasound treatment (HIFU) that targets the tumor from the outside of the body. It may help by shrinking or controlling certain types of soft tissue sarcoma or desmoid tumors when they are hard to remove surgically or when surgery/chemo/radiation is not a good option.
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment using sound waves (histotripsy) to break up tumors in the abdomen without surgery, aiming to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life. It is designed for people whose tumors cannot be removed surgically.
This trial tests a new treatment that uses ultrasound waves to break down tumours in the belly area, including those near the lymph nodes. It aims to help people who cannot have surgery or want an alternative.
This trial tests how your body's immune system reacts to a treatment called histotripsy for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. Histotripsy uses sound waves to break apart tumors, and the study aims to see if this can help your immune system fight the cancer better.
