About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma focused on measuring intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, 90Y TARE, radioembolization, gemcitabine and cisplatin

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Histologic Documentation: Core needle biopsy or surgical specimen that confirms intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). Patients must be determined to be unresectable by a multidisciplinary team that includes a hepatobiliary surgeon.
  • No prior liver radiation therapy or immunotherapy for cholangiocarcinoma.
  • Only one previous single agent chemotherapy for ICC allowed.
  • Patient may have prior liver resection.
  • Age > 18 years of age.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status < 2 (see Appendix E)
  • Child's Pugh score of A (see Appendix F)
  • Life expectancy of greater than 4 months
  • Normal organ and marrow function as outlined in the protocol.
  • Willingness to use effective contraceptive methods during the study. Patient may participate in the female (or female partner of male subject), either is not of childbearing potential (defined as postmenopausal for > 1 year or surgically sterile) or is practicing two forms of contraception. Sexually active male participants must agree to use a physical barrier method (male latex rubber condom with or without spermicide).
  • Patients with well controlled HIV infection are eligible if their CD4 count is >499/cu mm and viral load is < 50 copies/ml.
  • Pre-certification for the 90Y TARE should be performed prior to enrollment on this study.
  • All patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and must have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have had major surgery within 4 weeks prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from complications from a surgery more than 4 weeks earlier.
  • Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents.
  • Patients must not have any grade III/IV cardiac disease as defined by the New York Heart Association (NYHA) Criteria
  • Patients must NOT have liver disease such as cirrhosis or sever hepatic impairment as defined by Child-Pugh Class B or C
  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

90Y TARE with Gemcitabine and Cisplatin

Arm Description

90Y TARE will be given on day 3 or 4 of cycle 1 and start at 75% of the dose calculated by the body surface area formula and escalated by 25% per cohort in combination with cisplatin 25 mg/m2 and gemcitabine 300 mg/m2 in cycles 1 and 2. Once the 90Y TARE has reached the 100% dose level, the gemcitabine dose will increase to 600mg/m2 in dose level 3 and 1000mg/m2 in dose level 4. The cisplatin dose will remain at 25/mg/m2. For all dose levels, from cycle 3 to cycle 8, the cisplatin dose will be 25mg/m2 and the gemcitabine dose will be 1000mg/m2.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Presence or absence of a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of 90Y TARE in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin.
A continual reassessment method (CRM) design will be used to identify the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD)
