Arm Description

Treatment by combination of photodynamic therapy and S-1 PDT with Photofrin® 2mg/kg i.v. 48hrs before laser activation S-1 chemotherapy before intolerable complication or definite tumor progression Based on the body surface area, <1.25m2: 80mg/day, 1.25~1.5m2: 100mg/day, ≧1.5m2: 120mg/day Given orally twice daily for 14days, followed by 7 days without treatment

Treatment by photodynamic therapy only PDT with Photofrin® 2mg/kg i.v. 48hrs before laser activation Other managements except systemic chemotherapy were added freely.

Treatment by photodynamic therapy only or combined chemotherapy with photodynamic therapy: Open label

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Compare overall survival time in patients with unresectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma treated with photodynamic therapy combined with or without S-1

Secondary Outcome Measures

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
In patients with unresectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, photodynamic therapy with biliary stent has been known for palliation of jaundice and improving survival. But most of therapeutic effects were expected to delay bile duct obstruction rather than to decrease the tumor. Recently orally available chemotherapeutic agent, S-1 was reported as effective in patients with bile duct adenocarcinoma. The investigators' aims of study evaluate the combined effect of photodynamic therapy and S-1.
