Metastatic Biliary Cancer
Conditions
Keywords
biliary cancer, systemic chemotherapy, S-1, gemcitabine, cisplatin
Brief summary
To select a better agent between S-1 or gemcitabine in combination with cisplatin for the conventional chemotherapy platform for future development in advanced Biliary Tract Adenocarcinoma (BTA), the investigators conduct a randomized phase II trial of S-1 and cisplatin (SP) versus gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) as first line therapy in advanced BTA.
Interventions
S-1 40 mg/m2 D1-D14 Cisplatin 60 mg/m2 D1 every 3 weeks
Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 IV D1, D8 Cisplatin 60 mg/m2 IV D1 Every 3 weeks

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Progression-free survival rate at 6 months | 6 months | progression-free survival wad defined as the time from the date of enrollment to the date of the first occurrence of objective disease progression or death from any cause, which occur first. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| overall survival | up to 36 months | Overall survival is calculated from the date of enrollment to the date of death from any cause. |
| Response rate | 6 months | Response to chemotherapy will be assessed using RECIST 1.0 criteria. |
| Toxicities | Up to 24 months | Toxicities associated chemotherapy will be assessed and categorized using NCI CTCAE v3.0. The types of toxicities and the proportions of patients who experience each toxicity will be described. |
