Gemcitabine and Oxaliplatin Chemotherapy With or Without a Floxuridine and Dexamethasone P
This study will compare the safety and effects of HAI floxuridine and dexamethasone combined with the standard chemotherapy drugs gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GemOx) with those of GemOx alone in people with untreated cholangiocarcinoma that cannot be removed with surgery. The researchers want to find out whether the st

| Summary | This study will compare the safety and effects of HAI floxuridine and dexamethasone combined with the standard chemotherapy drugs gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GemOx) with those of GemOx alone in people with untreated cholangiocarcinoma that cannot be removed with surgery. The researchers want to find out whether the study treatment works better than the standard chemotherapy to delay progression of disease. For the study treatment to be considered better than the standard treatment, the study treatment should increase the time until progression of disease by an average of 3 months, compared with the usual approach. |
| Who can participate | Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥18 years * ECOG 0-1 * Histologically confirmed intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (also variously reported as peripheral cholangiocarcinoma, cholangiolar carcinoma or cholangiocellular carcinoma) (IHC). Confirmation of the diagnosis at MSKCC or at the enrolling institution must be obtained prior to randomization. * Clinical or radiographic evidence of metastatic disease confined to the liver. Note: presence of regional (porta hepatis) lymph node metastases will be allowed, provided they are amenable to resection. (Note: If peritoneal or other extrahepatic disease is found at time of pump placement, the pump will not be implanted. The patient will be removed from study, deemed nonevaluable and will not count toward the overall study accrual.) * Radiographically measu |
