Scientific Focus
Current Research Interests
Primary research interests include the clinical aspects, molecular epidemiology and pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma with an emphasis on disease determinants, diagnostic and screening tests, and ethnic differences. The goal is to improve screening methods and treatment outcomes of patients with this cancer. Dr. Nguyens research interests also include the epidemiological and clinical behaviors of viral hepatitis, particularly in hepatitis C patients with novel genotypes and in understudied populations. Study designs used in past and current studies include cross-sectional studies, case control studies, multicenter clinical studies employing standardized questionnaires, and multicenter randomized controlled trials including treatment studies.
Epidemiology and treatment of liver cancer; Multicenter study of early diagnosis of liver cancer with novel tumor markers; Colon cancer screening in Asian Americans; Multicenter randomized studies in HCV genotypes 6; Epidemiology and treatment outcomes of Asians with viral hepatitis.
Current HBV and HCV clinical trials including interferon-free studies for HCV and studies in HBV/pregnancy, HBV/normal ALT, diagnostic/treatment evaluation/adherence for liver cancer and viral hepatitis.
ACTIVE CLINICAL TRIALS: available for chronic hepatitis B and hepatitis C.
