Active clinical trials for "Biliary Tract Neoplasms"

The primary objective of the trial is to determine the efficacy of VANDETANIB monotherapy or VANDETANIB plus GEMCITABINE or PLACEBO plus GEMCITABINE in prolonging the progression-free survival (PFS) at the trial closure in patients with advanced (unresectable or metastatic) biliary tract cancer.

As a result of our previous NCRN study (ABC-02) cisplatin and gemcitabine (CisGem) is likely to become the international standard of care for patients with advanced biliary tract cancer (submitted: ASCO 2009). This study, ABC-03, will determine whether the addition of cediranib(an oral Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor inhibitor) to CisGem will improve the time to disease progression in this patient group.

The aim of the study is to establishing a standardized biobank and a clinical information database for patients with benign and malignant tumors of the biliary system. With follow-up plans and advanced multiomics technology, a multiomics database for patients with benign and malignant tumors of the biliary tract will be further established. Based on the above work, real-world clinical research on the diagnosis and treatment of biliary tract tumors is about to be carried out, and a high-standard cohort research foundation is laid for precision therapy based on multiomics characteristics and molecular typing of biliary tract tumors.

Trastuzumab is approved for the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer and gastric cancer. The recent study showed that HER2 overexpression or amplification is noted about 5-15% of total biliary tract cancer patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab in the combination of current standard gemcitabine plus cisplatin.

TST001 is a recombinant humanized anti-Claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2) IgG1 monoclonal antibody. This is an open-label, single-arm phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TST001 for patients with CLDN18.2 positive previously treated unresectable advanced or metastatic Biliary Tract Cancer.

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, multicentric, non-randomised, parallel-arm study that aims to establish the safety, tolerability, and initial efficacy of CAN04 in combination with 3 SoC chemotherapies (mFOLFOX, DTX, and G/C).

This research study is designed to see if a drug called Nivolumab is effective in treating patients with advanced refractory biliary tract cancers. Nivolumab has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of certain types of cancer but is not approved by the FDA for treatment of your type of cancer.

This protocol for Varlitinib is developed for the treatment of Biliary Tract Cancer. Varlitinib (also known as ASLAN001) is a small-molecule, adenosine triphosphate competitive inhibitor of the tyrosine kinases - epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)2, and HER4. Varlitinib may be beneficial to subjects with cancer by simultaneous inhibition of these receptors. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of Varlitinib in combination with capecitabine for the treatment of Biliary Tract Cancer. Treatment groups are Varlitinib+capecitabine and Placebo + capecitabine

In second line with advanced or recurrent biliary tract cancer refractory to first line gemcitabine plus cisplatin, efficacy of mFOLFOX vs. mFOLFIRI will be evaluated at randomized phase 2 trial.

Endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage (ERBD) is now widely accepted as the standard intervention for the relief of obstructive jaundice in patients with unresectable malignant biliary obstruction. Although plastic stents (PSs) were developed earlier, self-expandable metal stents (SEMSs) are now used widely as the initial choice for ERBD in this setting, as SEMSs offer longer patency.However, SEMSs do become occluded in some patients. There are a limited number of reports on the management of occluded SEMS with various results. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of ComVi stents SEMSs with uncovered SEMS in subsequent ERBD after the occlusion of initial SEMSs.
