About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II, Open-label, Single-center Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Pan-immunotherapy in Subjects With Local Advanced/Metastatic Biliary Tract Cancer

Biliary tract cancer (BTC) is a rare heterogeneous collection of malignancies arising within the biliary tract, characterized by innate chemoresistance and abysmal prognosis. PD-1 blockade has been developed to a new class of cancer immunotherapy that could restore an adequate immunosurveillance against the neoplasm and enhance T-cell-mediated anticancer immune responses. Manganese has been confirmed to activate antigen-presenting cells and function as mucosal immunoadjuvants in pre-clinical studies. This open-label, phase I/II study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of Manganese primed combined therapy of anti-PD-1 antibody and gemcitabine/cisplatin chemotherapy.

Being tested
Manganese Chloride, nab-paclitaxel, Gemcitabine, anti-PD-1 antibody
Keywords
local advanced, metastatic, anti-PD-1 antibody, Manganese, gemcitabine, cisplatin
Medical subject headings
Biliary Tract Neoplasms, Neoplasm Metastasis

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Manganese primed anti-PD-1 antibody plus nPG chemotherapyExperimentalSubject received Manganese primed anti-PD-1 antibody, nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine every 3 weeks until achieving a second assessable stable disease or up to a maximum of 12 cycles. Treatment continued until progressive disease, development of unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Subjects with treatment-related adverse events (AEs)

    Incidence, nature, and severity of adverse events graded according to the NCI CTCAE v5.0. AEs were considered to be treatment-related if they had started or worsened within the interval from first study drug administration until the follow-up visit.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS) at 6 months

    Progression free survival (PFS) at 6 months in patients with local advanced /metastatic BTCs treated with the combined regimen. Progression will be defined clinically or on imaging as per immune related response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST V1.1) definition

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Disease control rate (DCR)

    DCR is defined as the proportion of subjects who achieved a stable disease (SD), partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Object response rate (ORR)

    ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects who achieved a partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Overall survival (OS)

    OS time was measured from the study entry to the date of death.

    Measured: 24 months

  4. Number of participants with laboratory test abnormalities

    The laboratory tests of serum cytokines and chemokines will be performed on day 1 and 3 of each cycle, and the abnormality will be determined by the investigator.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Manganese Chloride, nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine in people with Biliary Tract Cancer (BTC), run by Chinese PLA General Hospital 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 9 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2019. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Weidong Han (86(10)66937463, hanwdrsw@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Subjects with treatment-related adverse events (AEs) (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 9 Jul 2019.
