Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well trifluridine/tipiracil and irinotecan work in treating patients with biliary tract cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced) and has not responded to treatment (refractory). Trifluridine/tipiracil and irinotecan may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The investigators retrospectively reviewed the participants suffering from recurrent intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma after curative resection and aimed to explore the predictive factors for recurrence and clarify the potential benefit of repeat hepatectomy or/with metastasectomy.
This is a prospective, single arm, open label, non-randomized, exploratory, multi-centre pilot study with median progression free survival as primary outcome. In total 28 patients (including 3 calculated drop outs and invalid cases) with advanced cholangiocellular carcinoma after failure of a gemcitabine based first-line therapy will be enrolled at 5 centres. To examine the efficacy of a combination therapy of Trifluridine/Tipiracil and Irinotecan in patients with advanced, non resectable or metastatic cholangio- and gallbladder carcinoma after failure to respond to a previous gemcitabine treatment. The study will be accompanied by a translational research program: Before treatment and after each radiological tumor assessment (Q6W) blood and stool will be collected and extensive panels of biomarkers will be accessed.
Background: The protein mesothelin is found on many kinds of tumors. The drug LMB-100 targets cancer cells that make this protein. Researchers want to see if LMB-100 combined with another drug can help people with these tumors. Objective: To find a safe dose of LMB-100 plus tofacitinib in people with pancreatic cancer, bile-duct cancer, and other solid tumors that make mesothelin. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with pancreatic cancer, bile-duct cancer, or any other solid tumor with mesothelin that worsened after treatment or they could not receive standard treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Tumor tissue sample. If they do not have a sample, they will have a biopsy. - Physical exam - Blood and heart tests - Scans and x-rays: They may have a dye injected for the scans. Participants will take the drugs in up to three 21-day cycles. They will take tofacitinib by mouth twice a day on days 1-10 of each cycle. They will have LMB-100 injected into the blood on days 4, 6, and 8 of every cycle. Patients that do not have a medi-port may need to have a central vein access line placed. Participants will take other drugs on the days they receive LMB-100. Participants will repeat screening tests during the study. They may have a biopsy at the start of the first 2 cycles. If participants must stop the study, they will have a safety visit 3-6 weeks after their last dose of the study drug. Some participants may then have visits every 6 weeks. After treatment, participants will be contacted about once a year. They will be asked about their cancer.
Surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma offers the only possibility of long-term survival, but remains a formidable undertaking. Traditionally, 90 day post-operative complications and death have been used to define operative risk. However, there is concern that this metric may not accurately capture long-term morbidity after such complex surgery. This is a retrospective review of a prospective database of patients undergoing surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma at a Western centre between 2009-2017.
The investigators design a phase IIB clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab as a second-line treatment in patients with advanced hepatobiliary malignant tumors and to analyze potential biomarkers of therapeutic response.
This is a Phase 1, multiple dose, ascending-dose escalation study and expansion study designed to define a maximum tolerated dose and/or recommended dose of XmAb22841 monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab; to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and anti-tumor activity of XmAb22841 monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in subjects with select advanced solid tumors.
The study to evaluate M7824 monotherapy in participants with advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer (BTC) who failed or were intolerant to first-line (1L) chemotherapy.
This is a phase 1/1b open label, multicenter dose escalation and dose expansion study to investigate the safety, tolerability and anti-tumor activity of TPST-1120, a small molecule selective antagonist of PPARĪ± (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha) as monotherapy and in combination with a systemic anticancer agent, nivolumab, an anti-PD1 antibody, in subjects with advanced solid tumors.
Background: Gastrointestinal tumors have a molecule called carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) in the tumors and blood. The agent MVT-5873 was designed to block this molecule. Researchers want to test how safe it is to give this agent to people before and after surgery to remove a tumor. They want to learn the highest dose tolerated. They want to see if getting the agent at surgery helps slow down the disease. Objective: To test the safety of giving MVT-5873 at surgery to remove cancer and see if it slows the progression of the disease. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with certain cancers and certain blood CA19-9 levels Design: Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Blood and heart tests - Scans - Review of normal activities - Review of tumor sample - Pregnancy test A few days before surgery, participants will get a dose of the study agent. They will get it through a small plastic tube in a vein over about 2 hours. Participants will sign a separate consent and have the surgery. A sample of the tumor and normal liver will be removed for research. For 1-2 weeks after surgery, participants will recover in intensive care then regular care at the hospital. They will be monitored and treated throughout the stay. After leaving the hospital, participants will get the study agent every week for 1 month. Then they will get it every other week for 2 months. They will repeat screening tests at study visits and at a follow-up visit. That will be about 5 weeks after the last dose.
