Phase 2
Conditions

Interventions
Drug: mFOLFOXIRI
Registration Number
NCT03603834
Lead Sponsor
Khon Kaen University
Brief Summary

Previous reports suggest benefit of neoadjuvant chemotherapy/chemoradiation treatment for borderline resectable cholangiocarcinoma. This study is a single center prospective phase II study of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with mFOLFOXIRI in patients with borderline resectable cholangiocarcinoma.

Detailed Description

Previous reports suggest benefit of neoadjuvant chemotherapy/chemoradiation treatment for borderline resectable cholangiocarcinoma.

This study is a single center prospective phase II study of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with mFOLFOXIRI in patients with borderline resectable cholangiocarcinoma.

This phase 2 trial was designed to enroll 25 patients with BRCC who were assigned to mFOLFOXIRI neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The primary endpoint was the overall response rate.
