A Trial of Behavioral Intervention on Prognostic Survival of Patients With Unresectable Liver Cancer
China193 participantsStarted 2026-01
Plain-language summary
Research purpose
1. To evaluate the impact of complex behavioral intervention on the one-year overall survival rate of patients with unresectable liver cancer after comprehensive treatment, a comparative study was conducted between the complex behavioral intervention group and the standard medical care control group, and the dose-response relationship between the intervention intensity and clinical outcomes was explored.
2. Analyze the impact mechanisms of complex behavioral interventions on patients' quality of life, adverse treatment reactions, and key biological indicators, including evaluating clinical outcomes such as 2-year overall survival rate, progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and disease control rate (DCR), as well as the association between changes in related biomarkers and behavioral compliance.
3. Evaluate the implementation effect and sustainability of the "in-hospital face-to-face + wechat platform" hybrid intervention model, including intervention acceptance, long-term behavior maintenance, health economic benefits, and perioperative recovery of patients undergoing down-conversion surgery.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
