Cisplatin and Gemcitabine Chemotherapy and Lenvatinib for Patients With Unresectable Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma

August 23, 2020 updated by: Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital

Combined Therapy Using Cisplatin and Gemcitabine Chemotherapy and Lenvatinib for Patients With Unresectable Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma, a Single-arm Study

We aim to explore the effects and safety of GC (Cisplatin and gemcitabine) chemotherapy combined with Lenvatinib as first-line therapy in advanced or unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

For advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) that cannot be surgically removed or accompanied by metastasis, the NCCN guidelines (NCCN guidelines hepatobiliary cancer, 2019) recommend that the current treatment options are limited, mainly recommending gemcitabine combined with platinum based antitumor drugs (cisplatin, oxaliplatin, etc.) chemotherapy as first-line treatment. Adding targeted drugs can enhance the anti-tumor effect. GC chemotherapy (Cisplatin + gemcitabine) has been used in the treatment of advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, but the efficacy is still not satisfactory. Lenvatinib is a small-molecule multikinase inhibitor that is currently approved for first-line treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Lenvatinib combined with chemotherapy may have a better effect than single use for advanced ICC. At present, lenvatinib combined with GC chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of advanced ICC has not been reported.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
