Albumin for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Study Description
Brief Summary:
The rate of liver cirrhosis is about 40% to 75% among patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Therefore, many patients with HCC were with low serum albumin before and after (especially) hepatic resection. Serum albumin level has been routinely used in clinical practice as a surrogate marker to evaluate nutritional status and liver function. Serum albumin concentration is used as an independent mortality risk predictor in a broad range of clinical and research settings. However, the role of albumin infusion in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after resection is unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the safety and clinical necessity of albumin infusion for HCC patients after hepatic resection.

Official Title: Albumin Infusion for Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Hypoproteinemia After Hepatectomy
Actual Study Start Date : March 1, 2019
Estimated Primary Completion Date : December 31, 2020
Estimated Study Completion Date : December 31, 2020
Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Albumin infusion group
Albumin infusion (20 g, ivgtt, qd) will be performed to patients with HCC after hepatic resection in 24 h for three days. All patients wil receive furosemide (10 mg, iv) after albumin transfusion. In the fifth day after resection, patients will receive albumin transfusion if they have ascites with shifting dullness, moderate edema (below both lower ankle joints) with serum albumin lower than 30 g/L, severe postoperation complication (septicopyemia, postoperative bleeding with reoperation, or biliary fistula).
Drug: Albumin infusion
Albumin infusion (20 g, ivgtt, qd) will be performed to patients with HCC after resection in 24 h for three days.

No Intervention: Empty control
Conventional liver protection and rehydration therapy.In the fifth day after resection, patients will receive albumin transfusion if they have ascites with shifting dullness, moderate edema (below both lower ankle joints) with serum albumin lower than 30 g/L, severe postoperation complication (septicopyemia, postoperative bleeding with reoperation, or biliary fistula).
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Serum total bilirubin level [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline total bilirubin at the fifth and seventh days after resection ]
    Recovery of liver function between the two groups

  2. Serum albumin level [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline serum albumin at the fifth and seventh days after resection ]
    Recovery of liver function between the two groups


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Abdominal girth [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline abdominal girth at the fifth and seventh days after resection ]
    Drainage liquid and abdominal girth between the two groups were compared

  2. Rate of postoperative complications [ Time Frame: The first months after resection ]
    The rate of postoperative complications between the two groups were compared
