Details and patient eligibility

About

1. Goals

   The primary goal of this phase II trial is to:

   evaluate the response rate of combination chemotherapy with Fluorouracil, Leucovorin, Oxaliplatin, and Irinotecan in patients with locally advanced or metastatic Biliary tract cancer as first-line chemotherapy

   Secondary goals are to:

   evaluate the treatment-related toxicities of this combination, investigate progression-free survival(PFS) and overall survival(OS) in this population

2. Design The proposed clinical trial is an open label, non-comparative, multicenter phase II trial according to the two stage testing design by Simon two-stage testing procedure

Enrollment: 53 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 75 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Liver cirrhosis (≥ Child-Pugh class B) C. History of significant neurologic or psychiatric disorders including dementia or seizures D. Active uncontrolled infection E. Other serious underlying medical conditions which could impair the ability of the patient to participate in the study
