Cholangiocarcinoma
Conditions
Brief summary
This phase II study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of S-1 plus Abraxane as second-line treatment for cholangiocarcinoma.
Detailed description
There are no standard second-line treatment for cholangiocarcinoma, new therapies are needed. The efficacy of S-1 as first-line treatment for cholangiocarcinoma was confirmed in several studies. The IMPACT study showed that Abraxane plus gemcitabine provide better survival than gemcitabine alone. Since cholangiocarcinoma displayed similar sensitivity to chemotherapy which was used in pancreatic carcinoma, we assume that S-1 plus Abraxane is effective and safe in treating cholangiocarcinoma.
Interventions
Patients will receive Abraxane at 100 mg/m2 X 3 doses on Days 1, 8. S-1 chemotherapy was given based on the body surface area, \<1.25 m2: 80mg/day, 1.25\ 1.5 m2: 100mg/day, ≧1.5 m2: 120mg/day. Given orally twice daily for 14 days, followed by 7 days without treatment.
