Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new drug plus standard treatment compared with standard treatment alone in patients with previously untreated cholangiocarcinoma or those that have progressed after first-line treatment for cholangiocarcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: - is the new drug plus standard treatment safe and tolerable - is the new drug plus standard treatment more effective than standard treatment
This is an Open Phase II Clinical Study of Tislelizumab Combined with Lenvatinib and GEMOX Versus Tislelizumab Combined with GEMOX in the Treatment of Locally Advanced Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma and Gallbladder Cancer.
Based on the cell free nucleic acid analysis information of blood samples, the results of microbiome and metabolite analysis of stool and urine samples of pancreatic cancer and bile duct cancer patients, the clinical correlations of them with primary cancer are evaluated. And based on these information, biomarkers for diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of pancreatic and bile duct cancer are explored.
This phase II ComboMATCH treatment trial compares the usual treatment of modified leucovorin, fluorouracil and oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX6) chemotherapy to using binimetinib plus mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy to shrink tumors in patients with biliary tract cancers that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) and had progression of cancer after previous treatments (2nd line setting). Fluorouracil is in a class of medications called antimetabolites. It works by slowing or stopping the growth of cancer cells in the body. Oxaliplatin is in a class of medications called platinum-containing antineoplastic agents. It works by killing tumor cells. Leucovorin may help the other drugs in the mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy regimen work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drugs. Binimetinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps to stop or slow the spread of tumor cells. Giving binimetinib in combination with mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy may be effective in shrinking or stabilizing advanced biliary tract cancers in the 2nd line setting.
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) can become elevated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), yolk sac tumors and other malignant tumors of various organs. Herein, the investigator present a case of AFP-producing gallbladder carcinoma with signet ring cells successfully treated with laparoscopic whole-layer cholecystectomy.
This is a multi-center, open-label, randomized, phase 2/3 trial of the bispecific antibody CTX-009 plus paclitaxel versus paclitaxel in patients with previously treated, unresectable advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancers.
This will be a phase III randomized trial of advanced gall bladder cancers. 140 patients will be randomized. Randomisation will be on a 1:1 ratio between the experimental arm and the control arm. Observation Arm : 6 cycles of Chemotherapy with Gemcitabine and Cisplatin will be followed by observation Chemotherapy followed by Chemo-radiotherapy Arm (CTRT): 6 cycles of Chemotherapy with Gemcitabine and Cisplatin will be followed by Concurrent Chemo-radiation with capecitabine (experimental arm).
The PLATON Network study is designed to elevate personalized therapy based on genomic tumor profiles in gastrointestinal cancer patients. Hereby, PLATON's study-design focuses on the patient's tumor molecular profiling. Within the network a web application will be developed to link clinical investigators and information on study sites, cancer patients and genetic alteration data, as well as available clinical trials at PLATON's study sites.
Evidence suggests distinct models of molecular and pathologic progression, and a growing body of genetics data points to a heterogeneous collection of underlying mutations in key oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. Although tumor genetics have been used to tailor individual treatment regimens and guide clinical decision making in other cancers, these principles have not been applied in gallbladder malignancy. Recent clinical trials with targeted therapies seem promising, although the relationships between subsets of patients with positive responses to therapy and tumor genetics remain unexplored.
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.
