Filter by:Pemetrexed in combination with erlotinib as a salvage treatment in patients with metastatic biliary tract cancer (BTC) who failed gemcitabine containing chemotherapy
eligible subjects will receive treatment beginning on Day 1 of each 3-week dosing cycle for pembrolizumab. Treatment with pembrolizumab will continue until documented disease progression, unacceptable adverse event(s),intercurrent illness that prevents further administration of treatment, Investigator's decision to withdraw the subject, subject withdraws consent, pregnancy of the subject, noncompliance with trial treatment or procedure requirements, subject receives 24 months of pembrolizumab, or administrative reasons requiring cessation of treatment.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effect of investigational drug nivolumab in combination with either gemcitabine/cisplatin chemotherapy, or in combination with another investigational agent ipilimumab in patients with advanced unresectable biliary tract cancer. Gemcitabine/cisplatin is the standard of care treatment for biliary tract cancer. Nivolumab and ipilimumab are types of immunotherapy. Immunotherapy works by encouraging the body's own immune system to attack the cancer cells. Nivolumab (Opdivo) is FDA approved for the treatment of several cancers including metastatic melanoma, advanced lung, kidney, head & neck and bladder cancer. The combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab (Yervoy) is FDA approved for metastatic melanoma.
This protocol for Varlitinib is developed for the treatment of Biliary Tract Cancer. Varlitinib (also known as ASLAN001) is a small-molecule, adenosine triphosphate competitive inhibitor of the tyrosine kinases - epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)2, and HER4. Varlitinib may be beneficial to subjects with cancer by simultaneous inhibition of these receptors. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of Varlitinib in combination with capecitabine for the treatment of Biliary Tract Cancer. Treatment groups are Varlitinib+capecitabine and Placebo + capecitabine
The purpose of this study is to explore safety and efficacy of varlitinib administered as monotherapy in Japanese subjects with advanced or metastatic solid tumors, and administered as combination with capecitabine in Japanese subjects with advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer. Also to evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) of varlitinib, capecitabine and its metabolite.
There is no proven adjuvant treatment after curative surgical resection in patients with cholangiocarcinoma, although previous meta-analysis suggested potential survival benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy in patients with lymph node-positive resected cholangiocarcinoma. Despite of lack of level 1 evidence and no data which regimen is optimal, adjuvant chemotherapy is widely used in daily practice setting. Based on this background, the investigators designed the randomized phase 2 trial comparing capecitabine and gemcitabine plus cisplatin in patients with resected lymph node-positive extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
This Endoscopic Ultrasound guided Biliary Drainage (EUS-BD) vs. Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP-TP) trial (BILPAL) is a randomized controlled multicenter trial that will provide evidence whether or not traditional ERCP biliary drainage is to be performed in patients with obstruction in bile duct due to unresectable pancreatic head or periampullary tumor.
<Research Hypothesis> The dynamics of immune systems by cytotoxic chemotherapy and its changes by combination with immuno-oncology agents will be uncovered. The combination of Durvalumab/Tremelimumab with gemcitabine/cisplatin chemotherapy is feasible and efficacious in chemo-naïve biliary tract cancer. <Purpose of the study> To assess the effect of Durvalumab/Tremelimumab in combination with gemcitabine/cisplatin on response rate (RR) in chemo-naïve advanced biliary tract cancer patients.
AIO-YMO/HEP-0315 (NIFE) is an open label, non-comparative, randomized, multicenter phase II trial
The study intends to evaluate the following objectives in patients with advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer who have not received systemic therapy for advanced/metastatic disease. Primary Objectives: Phase 1B - To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), as determined by dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and to characterise the safety profile of Varlitinib in combination with Gemcitabine and Cisplatin. Phase 2A - To further evaluate the safety and tolerability of Varlitinib in combination with Gemcitabine and Cisplatin at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). - To provide a preliminary assessment of the clinical activity of Varlitinib in combination with Gemcitabine and Cisplatin at the RP2D as measured by Objective Response Rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) (based on RECIST v1.1) Phase 2B - To compare the efficacy of Varlitinib in combination with Gemcitabine and Cisplatin to placebo in combination with Gemcitabine and Cisplatin as measured by progression-free survival (based on RECIST v1.1).
