Filter by:Background: Biliary tract carcinoma (BTC) is cancer of the slender tubes that carry fluids in the liver. People with advanced BTC have few treatment options, and their survival rates are very low. Objective: To test a study drug (CDX-1140) combined 3 other drugs (capecitabine, oxaliplatin, Keytruda) in people with BTC. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years or older with BTC that progressed after treatment and is not eligible for surgery or liver transplant. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam. They will have blood tests and tests of their heart function. They will have imaging scans. They may need to have a biopsy: A small sample of tissue will be taken from their tumor using a small needle. Three of the drugs are given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm (intravenous). The fourth drug is a pill taken by mouth with water. Participants will be treated in 21-day cycles. They will receive intravenous treatments on day 1 and day 8 of the first 6 cycles. After that, they will receive intravenous treatments only on day 1 of each cycle. Participants will take the pill twice a day only for the first 2 weeks of each cycle. They will stop taking this drug after 6 cycles. Imaging scans will be repeated every 9 weeks. Participants may continue receiving the study treatment for up to 2 years. Follow-up visits, including imaging scans, will continue for 3 more years. These images may be taken at other locations and sent to the researchers. ...
Observational study that will be collecting clinical and molecular health information from cancer patients who have received comprehensive genomic profiling and meet the specific eligibility criteria outlined for each cohort with the goal of conducting research to advance cancer care and create a dataset that furthers cancer research.
A randomised clinical trial to compare the clinical efficacy of multiple plastic stents to fully covered self expanding metal stents in the palliation of distal malignant biliary obstruction in patients with irresectable tumours.
The main purpose of this study is to see if regorafenib can help control or decrease cancer size in patients with cancer of the bile duct. Researchers also want to find out if regorafenib is safe and tolerable.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine whether the combination of the established chemotherapeutic agent 5-fluorouracil(5-FU) and the large carbohydrate molecule GM-CT-01 is beneficial in treating advanced gall bladder and bile duct cancer.
