About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Unresectable Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma focused on measuring Unresectable hilar cholangiocarcinoma, Irradiation stent, Conventional stent, Trans-arterial infusion, Bile duct

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 75 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Histological or pathological diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma
  • With symptoms such as jaundice related to biliary obstruction
  • Biliary obstruction of Bismuth-Correlate Classification Type III or IV
  • Unresectable disease confirmed by multidisciplinary team
  • Maximum diameter of lesion ≤3 cm

  • 18-75 years old
  • With an expected survival time ≥ 3 months
  • With an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2
  • Meet the following laboratory test parameters: hematologic function (absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.0×10⁹/L; platelet count ≥ 50×10⁹/L; hemoglobin ≥ 90 g/L; INR < 1.7 or prolonged prothrombin time not more than 4 seconds); liver function (ALT/AST not more than 5 times the upper limit of normal; albumin ≥ 28 g/L); renal function (serum creatinine not more than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Unstable angina, myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft, congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack, pulmonary embolism) within 3 months before enrollment
  • Persistent arrhythmia (CTCAE criteria grade 2 and above), atrial fibrillation of any degree, prolonged Qtc interval (more than 450 ms in men and more than 470 ms in women)
  • Refractory hypertension (blood pressure above 150/100 mmHg even after optimal drug therapy
  • Concomitant receipt of other anti-tumor drugs
  • Concomitant human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome

Arm Description

Radiation-Emitting Metallic Stents (REMS) Combined With Trans-Arterial Infusion (TAI) for Unresectable Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma

Uncovered Self-Expandable Metallic Stent (SEMS) Combined With Trans-Arterial Infusion (TAI) for Unresectable Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Overall survival
Time from treatment to the day when the patients died or lost to the follow-up.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Quality of life
QoL would be estimated by using European for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)
Progression free survival
Time from stenting to the day when progression appeared or the patients died from any cause or lost to the follow-up.
Patency
Time from stent placement to the day when re-stenosis of the stent occurred.
Adverse events
Including side effect/complication, radioactive safety. Complications would be evaluated according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE 4.03).
Relief of jaundice
Relief of jaundice was defined as reduction of more than 20% total bilirubin within 1 week after stent implantation.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Radiation-Emitting Metallic Stents (REMS) combined with Trans-Arterial Infusion (TAI) for unresectable hilar cholangiocarcinoma.
Detailed Description
This is a multicentric, open-labal, randomized controlled trial which aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Radiation-Emitting Metallic Stents (REMS) combined with Trans-Arterial Infusion (TAI) versus Uncovered Self-Expandable Metallic Stent (SEMS) Combined With Trans-Arterial Infusion (TAI) for Unresectable Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma. The primary hypotheses are that Radiation-Emitting Metallic Stents (REMS) combined with Trans-Arterial Infusion (TAI) is superior to Uncovered Self-Expandable Metallic Stent (SEMS) Combined With Trans-Arterial Infusion (TAI) with respect to Over survival(OS). The primary endpoint is overall survival. The secondary endpoints include quality of life, progression free survival, relief of jaundice, patency, and adverse events.
