Filter by:Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) arises from the epithelial cells of bile ducts and occurs proximal to the segmental biliary ducts. ICC is highly aggressive, long-term survival only can be achieved in patients with R0 surgical resection. Large diameter of tumor, multiple tumors, preoperative carbohydrate antigen(CA)19-9 elevated, tumors invaded adjacent blood vessels and preoperative radiology hints suspected regional lymph node metastasis were considered as high-risk factors of recurrence in the previous study. Chemotherapy can trigger antigen release and induces strong anti-tumor effects of T cells due to cytotoxic cell death. Immune checkpoint inhibitors can relieve tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. Hence, we aim to investigate objective response rate and R0 resection rate and survival rate of patients with high-risk factors of recurrence who receives Tislelizumab combined with GEMOX regimen(GOT) as a neoadjuvant therapy.
Primary liver cancer is the sixth most common cancer worldwide, including hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, of which intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma accounts for 10%-15%. Surgical resection is the only curative method for ICC, but most patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, and only 15% of patients can undergo surgical resection. In locally advanced ICC patients without distant metastases, although the tumor was initially assessed as unresectable, these patients may have the opportunity for surgical resection after reducing the size tumor lesion and increasing the remnant liver volume through conversion therapy. The current standard first-line treatment for unresectable ICC is gemcitabine combined with cisplatin, with a median overall survival of only 11.7 months and an ORR of 26.1%. In view of the poor effect of the standard chemotherapy regimen, the NCCN guidelines recommend that patients could participate in clinical study. Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy can increase the local blood drug concentration and improve the tumor regression rate. By reducing the dose of systemic chemotherapy drugs concentration, the incidence of adverse reactions can be reduced. Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy may be a better choice for locally advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. PD-1 immunotherapy combined with targeted therapy is expected to improve the prognosis of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. This study investigates the safety and efficacy of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy combined with sintilimab and bevacizumabin the treatment of unresectable ICC.
This phase II trial tests whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound can predict the response of bile duct cancer to targeted radiotherapy (radioembolization treatment). Contrast-enhanced ultrasound uses gas microbubbles that may provide enhancement on ultrasound. It is also possible to pop these microbubbles using ultrasound imaging. Tumors that experience popping of these microbubbles may be easier to kill with radiotherapies. Therefore, this trial may also help doctors see if ultrasound-triggered microbubble popping can improve bile duct cancer response to radiotherapy. Another purpose of this trial is to test if the pressure inside the tumor estimated through ultrasound can be used to predict the tumor response to radiotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a radiological nomogram including radiological characteristics, clinical risk factors, and medical history. And we aim to establish a noninvasive method for the diagnosis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), and to construct a differential diagnosis model for ICC and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with higher sensitivity and accuracy.

This phase I trial studies the side effects of pressurized intraperitoneal aerosolized chemotherapy (PIPAC) nab-paclitaxel in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin in treating patients with biliary tract cancer that has spread to the peritoneum (peritoneal metastases). PIPAC involves the administration of intraperitoneal chemotherapy (anticancer drugs given directly to the lining of the abdomen). PIPAC uses a nebulizer (a device that turns liquids into a fine mist) which is connected to a high-pressure injector and inserted into the abdomen (part of the body that contains the digestive organs) during a laparoscopic procedure (a surgery using small incisions to introduce air and insert a camera and other instruments into the abdominal cavity for diagnosis and/or to perform routine surgical procedures). Pressurization of the liquid chemotherapy through the study device results in aerosolization (a fine mist or spray) of the chemotherapy intra-abdominally (into the abdomen), which results in the drug reaching more of the tissue as well as reaching deeper into the tissue, which reduces the amount of chemotherapy that needs to be used and potentially reduces side effect. Chemotherapy drugs, such as nab-paclitaxel, gemcitabine, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving nab-paclitaxel via PIPAC in combination with standard of care gemcitabine and cisplatin may reduce side effects and make this chemotherapy regimen more tolerable in patients with biliary tract cancer that has spread to the spread to the peritoneum.
A randomized controlled, phase II clinical trial is designed to compare the safety and efficacy of Sintilimab combined with GEMOX ± IBI305 and GEMOX as first-line therapy in advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
At present, for advanced Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma（ICC）, the effect of single treatment is not good.So far, superselective drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization（DEB-TACE） is a good method for the treatment of local lesions in advanced ICC.Studies have shown that the combination of sovantinib and immunotherapy has also shown encouraging results, and patients are well tolerated.Therefore, we designed DEB-TACE combined with Surufatinib and Camrelizumab for the exploratory study of inoperable or metastatic ICC, in order to provide a safe, effective and tolerable option for patients with ICC, prolong their survival time and improve their quality of life.
Safety Run-in Cohort (cohort 1): 10 patients will be treated with IT injection of VG161 in the cohort 1 at dose level of 1.0x10E8 PFU x 3 days. Monotherapy Cohorts (Cohort 2 and 3) Cohort 2 (HCC) This part is a single-agent, single one-dose level and single-arm design. Approximately 39 subjects will be enrolled in the study to receive VG161. In the first stage, 21 subjects will be enrolled. If there is only 1 or fewer subjects has been observed with objective response and no more than 12 (<13) subjects have PFS longer than 3 months, the trial will be stopped. Otherwise, this study will continue to enter the second stage, and 18 additional subjects will be added, and the total number of trial subjects will reach 39. Cohort 3 (ICC) This part is a single-agent, single one-dose level and single-arm design. The trial will be carried out in two periods. In the first period, a total of 20 subjects will be enrolled. If there is only 1 or fewer response case in the 20 subjects, the trial will be stopped to investigate the efficacy of the IP, otherwise, subjects will continue to enter the second period, and 13 additional subjects will be added, and the total number of trial cases will reach 33. Cohort 4 (ICC and HCC) Combination with Nivolumab Combination cohort and subjects will receive VG161 at the same schedule as the monotherapy cohorts and 240 mg of intravenous Nivolumab on days 8 and 15 of each treatment cycle. The Nivolumab dose can be changed to 480 mg every 4 weeks after cycle one based on investigator's discretion.
The study trial is a open-label, single-arm, multicenter phase II trial investigating the combined treatment of atezolizumab and derazantinib in patients with advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with FGFR2 fusions/rearrangements
