Brief summary
Compare the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy with Cisplatin or Carboplatin and Gemcitabine versus Gemcitabine in patients with resected or ablated intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
Detailed description
Phase III, multicenter, open label, randomized study of Cisplatin or Carboplatin with Gemcitabine versus Gemcitabine alone as adjuvant therapy in patients with resected or ablated intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to Cisplatin or Carboplatin with Gemcitabine versus Gemcitabine alone.
Interventions
Arm A: Carboplatin or Cisplatin every 21 days for 6 cycles. Dose based on weight.
