About this study
Official title: A Phase 2 Study of Anti-PD1 Antibody Toripalimab Combined With Gemox (Gemcitabine and Oxaliplatin) as First-line Therapy in Patients With Advanced or Unresectable Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma
To explore the objective response rate and safety of toripalimab combined with Gemox in the first-line treatment of progressive, metastatic or unresectable advanced ICC.
Read the detailed description
Studies have shown that the Gemox chemotherapy (oxaliplatin + gemcitabine) in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer has an objective response rate (ORR) of 22% (95% CI 6.5-37.4%) and a stable disease rate of 30%. The progression rate was 48%, the tumor progression-free survival (PFS) was 3.9 months and the overall survival (OS) was 7.6 months. In recent years, monoclonal antibodies against programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1) and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) such as nivolumab, Pembrolizumab, and Toripalimab. It has shown encouraging effects in the treatment of a variety of solid tumors. For advanced cholangiocarcinoma that cannot be resected or is accompanied by metastasis, NCCN guidelines (NCCN guidelines hepatobiliary cancer, 2020) recommend that the current treatment options are limited, and gemcitabine combined with platinum anti-tumor drugs (cisplatin, oxaliplatin, etc.) are recommended. Chemotherapy regimen as first-line treatment. For those with microsatellite instability, it is recommended to add a PD1 monoclonal antibody. The guidelines also specifically stated that the above recommendations lack evidence support from phase III clinical trials and encourage the development of clinical trial research. PD1 monoclonal antibody combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced ICC may have a better effect than chemotherapy alone. Currently, as a first-line treatment, there is no research report on PD1 monoclonal antibody combined with Gemox in the treatment of advanced ICC.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Gemox combimed PD1 antibody in people with Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma, 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 5 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 14 Jul 2021. 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 NCT04961788, which also lists 2 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 14 Jul 2021.
