Clinical Trials

The aim of this study is to compare the quality of life of patients with biliary obstruction who have undergone an endoscopic or percutaneous drainage. The quality of life of patients witll be assessed using the validated "European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions Questionnaire" and the "Intervention-Dependent Questionnaire" which was developed according to current literature as well as the expert opinion of gastroeneterologists.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin given with or without nab-paclitaxel work in treating patients with newly diagnosed biliary tract cancers that have spread to other places in the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, cisplatin, and nab-paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not known if giving gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin with or without nab-paclitaxel may work better at treating biliary tract cancers.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate M7824 monotherapy in participants with advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer (BTC) who failed or were intolerant to first-line (1L) chemotherapy.

This phase II trial studies how well trifluridine/tipiracil hydrochloride combination agent TAS-102 (TAS-102) works in treating participants with biliary tract cancers that have spread to other places in the body. Drugs used in the chemotherapy, such as trifluridine/tipiracil hydrochloride combination agent TAS-102, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

The purpose of this study is to assess the response rate (ORR) of patients with unresectable, pre-treated biliary cancers treated with the combination of atezolizumab and CDX-1127 (varlilumab) with or without cobimetinib, and to assess the progression free survival (PFS) of patients with unresectable, pre-treated biliary cancers treated with the combination of atezolizumab and CDX-1127 (varlilumab) with or without cobimetinib.

The study was conducted to assess the safety and tolerability of (1) polyethylene glycol (PEG) PEGylated Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase (PEGPH20) in combination with cisplatin (CIS) and gemcitabine (GEM) (PEGCISGEM), and (2) PEGPH20 in combination with CIS, GEM, and atezolizumab (PEGCISGEMATEZO).

The purpose of this study is to determine how well atezolizumab with or without cobimetinib works in treating patients with bile duct cancer that has spread to other places in the body and cannot be removed by surgery or gallbladder cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cobimetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving atezolizumab with cobimetinib may work better at treating patients with bile duct and gallbladder cancer.

This pilot phase I trial studies the side effects and best way to give sirolimus, gemcitabine hydrochloride, and cisplatin in treating patients at high risk for cholangiocarcinoma recurrence after liver transplant or surgery. Sirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving sirolimus with gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin may be an effective treatment for patients with a high ...

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if adding abraxane (nab-paclitaxel) to gemcitabine and cisplatin can help to control metastatic or unresectable biliary cancer. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether bintrafusp alfa in combination with the current standard of care (SoC) (gemcitabine plus cisplatin) improves overall survival (OS) or progression-free survival (PFS) in chemotherapy and immunotherapy-naïve participants with locally advanced or metastatic BTC compared to placebo, gemcitabine and cisplatin.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary effectiveness of ZB131 in patients with solid tumors where prevalence of CSP expression is high. 

The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended dose of tucatinib when combined with trastuzumab and modified FOLFOX7 (mFOLFOX7) or CAPOX in subjects with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)+ gastrointestinal cancers.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and side effects of a drug called SGN-B7H4V in participants with solid tumors.  A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating the disease. Participants will have cancer that has spread in the body near where it started (locally advanced) and cannot be removed (unresectable) or has spread through the body (metastatic). This study will have three parts. Parts A and B of the study will find out how much SGN-B7H4V should be given to participants. Part C will use the dose found in Parts A ...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of SAR444881 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab or with cetuximab. The study will enroll advanced cancer patients with unresectable or metastatic disease who are refractory to or are not candidates for standard approved therapy and will be comprised of two parts - an initial "3 + 3" dose escalation phase (Part 1) with Sub-Parts 1A (monotherapy SAR444881), 1B (SAR444881 in combination with pembrolizumab) and 1C (SAR444881 in combination with cetuximab) followed by a dose optimization/expansion phase (Part 2), including Sub-Part 2A (Dose Optimization) with Cohorts A1 (SAR444881 in ...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the challenges, behavioral patterns, and preferences of minority patient participation in clinical trials. Also, to develop and validate a personalized clinical trial educational platform to boost participation among underserved cancer patients.

The purpose of this study is to collect blood and tissue samples from patients with and without cancer to evaluate laboratory tests for early cancer detection which may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of cancers.

The purpose of this study is to develop a data-driven approach that enables healthcare providers to “prescribe” exercise in the appropriate dose in a manner analogous to prescribing a drug.
