This is a Phase I, open-label, multi-centre, drug combination study of double and triple combination oral selumetinib (AZD6244 Hyd-sulfate) plus intravenous (IV) MEDI4736 and oral selumetinib plus IV MEDI4736 and IV tremelimumab in patients with advanced solid tumours.
This is a multicenter, single arm, open-label study in participants with unresectable BTC and disease progression or failure following one prior gemcitabine-based doublet chemotherapy regimen (combination of gemcitabine and cisplatin, or gemcitabine and other platinum agent/fluoropyrimidine agent). This study contains 3 phases: a Pre-treatment phase that will last within 21 days; a Treatment phase that will consist of study treatment cycles and tumor assessment conducted every 6-8 weeks; and a Follow-up phase that will begin immediately after the Off-Treatment Visit and will continue as long as the participant is alive, unless the participant withdraws consent, or until the End of Study.
This study is designed to investigate the effect of second-line irinotecan and capecitabine versus irinotecan alone for gemcitabine and cisplatin refractory advanced biliary tract cancer patients.
This study will conduct a phase II study of triple combination with oxaliplatin, irinotecan, and S-1 as the first-line chemotherapy in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer.
This randomized pilot trial studies how well two supportive programs work for improving fatigue and depressive symptoms in patients with GI undergoing chemotherapy. Possible mediators such as psychological stress, circadian disruption, and inflammation, will also be explored.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of Niti-S Mira-Cover III Biliary Stent with Comvi Biliary Covered Stent for the treatment of malignant biliary obstruction.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of the combination of the study drug known as ramucirumab plus pembrolizumab in participants with locally advanced and unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium, or biliary tract cancer (BTC).
Biliary tract cancer is relatively rare cancer, with generally poor prognosis. In metastatic/recurrent biliary tract cancer, the most commonly used 1st-line chemotherapy is gemcitabine+cisplatin combination. However, there is no standard 2nd-line chemotherapy and there is no validated targeted therapeutic agent, even though this tumor harbors diverse genetic characteristics. TH-302 (1-methyl-2-nitro-1H-imidazole-5-yl)methyl N,N'-bis(2-bromoethyl) diamidophos-phate is a nitroimidazole-linked prodrug of a brominated version of isophosphoramide mustard (Br-IPM). When exposed to hypoxic conditions, TH-302 is reduced at the nitroimadazole site of the prodrug by intracellular reductases leading to the release of Br-IPM. Br-IPM can then act as a DNA crosslinking agent. In areas of normoxia, TH-302 remains intact as a prodrug and toxicity is minimized. In addition, preclinical data suggest that after activation, the active moiety may diffuse to areas outside the hypoxic region, demonstrating a "bystander" effect and possibly exhibiting additional anti-tumor activity. It is well known that biliary tract cancer is hypovascular tumor, so it contains large hypoxic area in the tumor. Therefore it would be worthy to test TH-302 in biliary tract cancer. This study is a phase II study of TH-302 monotherapy as second-line treatment in advanced biliary tract cancer, to investigate efficacy and safety of TH-302 monotherapy.
Primary Objective: To evaluate disease control rate (DCR) of S-1 in combination with gemcitabine in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate overall response rate (ORR) - To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) - To evaluate overall survival (OS) - To assess the safety profile
