About this study

Official title: 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

Read the 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.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing GC combined Lenvatinib in people with Cholangiocarcinoma, Intrahepatic, run by Shanghai Zhongshan 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 26 Aug 2020. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xiaoyong Huang, MD (+8615021519215, huang.xiaoyong@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04527679, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 26 Aug 2020.
