What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Oxaliplatin, Fluorouracil, Leucovorin, CapecitabineDrug

    Also called 1-OHP, Dacotin, Eloxatin, L-OHP;, 5-Fluorouracil,5FU;, Levofolinic acid,Folinic acid.

    HAI of Oxaliplatin and Fluorouracil: Oxaliplatin 130mg/m2 in split daily doses for 3 days, Fluorouracil 3000 mg/m2 in split daily doses for 3 days. Intraarterial Oxaliplatin plus intravenous Leucovorin 200 mg/m2 simultaneously over 2 hours followed by intraarterial Fluorouracil over 22 hours on Days 1-3 of each cycle, repeat every 21 days. After 4-6 cycles of HAI, maintenance treatment continue, Maintenance of Oral capecitabine 1,000 mg/m2 twice a day from days 1-14, Cycles were repeated every 21 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Oxaliplatin, Fluorouracil, Leucovorin, Capecitabine in people with Biliary Tract Cancer, run by Peking University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Response rates (time frame: 4 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Jan 2017.
