Nurse-led preparation program for liver cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a personalized preparation program led by nurses before liver cancer surgery helps patients recover better and have fewer complications. The program is designed specifically for people scheduled to have part of their liver removed.

This trial tests whether a personalized treatment plan based on a lab-grown 3D model of your tumor (called an organoid) can help prevent your liver cancer from coming back after surgery. The goal is to find the most effective drugs for your specific cancer.
This study tests whether a pre-surgery exercise and nutrition program (prehabilitation) can improve recovery outcomes for people with liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed right away. The goal is to help you become stronger before planned treatment to shrink the tumor.
This study tests a program of nutrition, exercise, and emotional support before and during chemotherapy and stomach cancer surgery. It aims to help patients recover faster and have fewer complications.
This trial studies a structured exercise and training program before and after liver transplantation to help people recover better. You may be able to benefit if you’re getting an elective liver transplant and can safely participate in the training plan.
This study tests a pre-surgery exercise and nutrition program (prehabilitation) for people waiting for a liver transplant. It aims to see if getting stronger before surgery can help you recover better after the transplant.
This trial tests whether giving chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted drugs before surgery helps prevent liver cancer from coming back in patients with high-risk tumors. You would receive treatment to shrink the tumor before your scheduled surgery.
