Surufatinib Combined With Toripalimab and HAIC in the Treatment of Inoperable or Metastatic Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma

A Single-center, Single-arm, Open-label Clinical Study of Surufatinib Combined With Toripalimab and HAIC in Patients With Inoperable or Metastatic Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma

This study is a single-arm, open-arm, single-center clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of HAIC in combination with Surufatinib and Toripalimab in patients with inoperable or metastatic intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

The study was divided into three stages: screening period, treatment period and follow-up period. During the treatment period, the tumor status was evaluated by imaging every 6 weeks (±7 days), and the efficacy was changed to every 8 weeks (±7 days) after 12 weeks until the disease progressed (RECIST 1.1) or death (during the treatment of the patient) or toxicity became intolerable. The tumor treatment status and survival status after the disease progression were recorded. Safety outcome measures included AE, changes in laboratory test values, vital signs and electrocardiogram changes.

19. Any other medical condition, clinically significant metabolic abnormality, physical abnormality or laboratory abnormality, which, in the investigator's judgment, reasonably suspects that the patient has a medical condition or condition that is not suitable for the use of the investigational drug (such as having seizures and requiring treatment), or which would affect the interpretation of the study results or place the patient at high risk;
20. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; Known history of clinically significant liver disease, including viral hepatitis [Known hepatitis B virus (HBV) carriers must rule out active HBV infection, i.e., positive HBV DNA (>1×104 copies /mL or > 2000 IU/ml); known hepatitis C virus infection (HCV) and HCV RNA positive (>1×103 copies /mL), or other hepatitis, cirrhosis;
