the Impact of Early Palliative Care on the Survival of Locally Advanced and / or Metastatic Cholangiocarcinoma Patients

• Conditions: Cholangiocarcinoma
• Interventions: Other: early palliative care

• Registration Number: NCT04415190
• Lead Sponsor: Central Hospital, Nancy, France

Brief Summary

The prognosis for cholangiocarcinoma is bad. Potentially, early management by a palliative care team could increase overall survival. We will also assess whether early management by a palliative care team could impact progression-free survival, the place of death and the date of the last chemotherapy, in particular to avoid unnecessary chemotherapy cures in an imminent end of life
