- Target Recruitment
- 66
- histologically proven locally advanced unresectable or metastatic intra-hepatic or hilum cholangiocarcinoma or histologically proven metastatic extra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma (common bile duct and gallbladder)
- progression documented after GEM-CDDP (or GEM-OX), or gemcitabine alone followed or preceded by platinum-based chemotherapy
- signed written informed consent
- Male or female = 18 years of age
- ECOG PS 0/1 at study entry
- measurable disease according to RECIST version 1.1
- adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function as assessed by the following laboratory requirements conducted within 7 days of starting to study treatment:
oSerum creatinine =1.5x upper reference range
oTotal bilirubin =1.5x ULN
oAlanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) = 3.0x ULN (<5x ULN for patients with liver involvement of their cancer).
oAmylase and lipase =1.5x ULN.
oAlkaline phosphatase (ALP) = 2.5x ULN (=5x ULN for patients with liver involvement of their cancer and /or have bone metastases)
oPlatelets count =100.000/mm³, hemoglobin (Hb) =9 g/dL, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) =1500/mm³
oInternation normalized ratio (INR) =1.5x ULN and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) = 1.5 x ULN unless receiving treatment with therapeutic anticoagulation. Patients being treated with anticoagulant, e.g. heparin, will be allowed to participate provided no prior evidence of an underlying abnormality in these parameters exists. Close monitoring of at least weekly evaluations will be performed until INR and PTT are stable based on a pre-dose measurement as defined by the local standard of care.

- negative pregnancy test, only applicable if there is a risk of conception
- negative proteinuria on dipstick or 24 hours proteinuria<1000mg
