Cholangiocarcinoma

This is an open-label, multicenter Phase 1b/2a study to evaluate safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and efficacy of GNS561 in combination with trametinib in Advanced KRAS Mutated Cholangiocarcinoma after failure of standard-of-care first line therapy

The investigators are trying to learn more about the personal perceptions and experiences regarding the needs of patients with liver cancer to help improve the care of all patients. The investigators would like to know whether there are needs that patients have or are aware of, especially those needs that the investigators have not been able to address. The investigators aim to develop a program that helps participants and participant's families to navigate the process of being diagnosed with liver cancer and receiving treatment.

Background: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is an aggressive cancer of the bile ducts. People with CCA have few treatment options and poor survival. Researchers want to see if a new drug can stop or slow CCA growth. Objective: To find the safest and most effective dose of tivozanib to treat CCA and learn its overall response rate. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older with CCA not removable with surgery and have been treated with at least one type of chemotherapy. Design: Participants will be screened with the following: * Medical history * Physical exam * Assessment of their ability to do daily activities * Medicine review * Blood tests, including thyroid function tests * Urine tests * Electrocardiogram, to check heart function * Pregnancy test, if needed * Tumor biopsy, if needed * Computed tomography scans * Magnetic resonance imaging, if needed Some screening tests may be repeated during the study. Participants will be asked to enroll in protocol #13C0176. This will allow any remaining tumor or blood samples to be used in future research. Participants will take tivozanib by mouth, once a day for 21 days per cycle or every other day per cycle. Each cycle is 28 days. They can take the drug until they have bad side effects, their CCA gets worse, or if they become pregnant. They will record their blood pressure twice daily at home. They will also keep a medication diary of each dose of tivozanib they take and any side effects. Participants will have study visits before starting each new cycle and every 8 weeks. They will also have a follow-up visit 30 days after treatment ends at NIH, or if they are unable to come to NIH by phone, videocall, or other NIH-approved platform. Then they will be contacted 6 and 12 months later, and then once a year.

Cholangiocarcinoma is a rare and aggressive tumor of the bile duct associated with a poor prognosis and very limited treatment options. The IDH1 inhibitor ivosidenib provides a new, targeted treatment option for this disease. Ivosidenib was approved by European Medicines Agency (EMA) in May 2023 as monotherapy in adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with an IDH1 R132 mutation who were previously treated by at least one prior line of systemic therapy. The prospective, multicenter, observational study IDHIRA will collect first real-world data on ivosidenib treatment in a broad patient population in Germany. Ivosidenib will be administered according to the current SmPC. Thus, IDHIRA will generate real-world evidence on effectiveness, quality of life (QoL) and safety of ivosidenib.

This phase II trial studies whether \[18F\]FTT can be used with positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) imaging to predict treatment response in patients scheduled to receive gemcitabine, cisplatin, and durvalumab (GCD) for newly diagnosed cholangiocarcinoma. PET/CT is an imaging technique that utilizes PET and CT in a single machine. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, in the case of this trial, \[18F\]FTT, to make detailed, computerized pictures of areas inside the body where the tracer is used. CT utilizes x-rays that traverse body from the outside. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in the patient's body. \[18F\]FTT targets and binds to poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1). Some cholangiocarcinoma tumor cells may express PARP1 which may make it easier to see them on PET/CT. Research has shown that tumor cells that express PARP1 may not respond well to GCD treatment. Researchers hope that by using \[18F\]FTT with PET/CT imaging they will be able to detect which patients have tumor cells that express PARP1, which may help predict treatment response in patients scheduled to receive GCD for newly diagnosed cholangiocarcinoma.

This is a multi-center, first-in-human (FIH), open-label, Phase 1a/1b dose escalation and dose expansion study to assess the safety, PK, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of PHST001 monotherapy (Phase 1a) or in combination with chemotherapy (Phase 1b) in adult participants with advanced relapsed and/or refractory solid tumors (including but not limited to CNS tumors in Phase 1a only). In Phase 1b cohort expansions, the study will focus on participants with advanced relapsed and/or refractory ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, and cholangiocarcinoma. The study's primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of PHST001 and determine the RP2D (Recommended Phase 2 dose) of PHST001 monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy as well as assess the anti-tumor activity of PHST001 and chemotherapy in Phase 1b.

Biotherapies are biological (extracted from an organism or living tissue) or biotechnological drugs used in the treatment of multiple conditions, such as autoimmune inflammatory diseases, cancers, and hematologic diseases. In recent years, these biotherapies have notably emerged in the treatment of cancers and hematologic disorders. As such, most patients with cancers or hematologic diseases will likely receive a biotherapy as part of their care pathway. These biotherapies are associated with various side effects, including hypersensitivity or allergic reactions, which are often poorly characterized in clinical trials. These reactions manifest as symptoms without specific dermatologic or allergologic semiology (such as itching, erythema, shortness of breath, sometimes digestive issues, or discomfort, and in some cases, an anaphylactic reaction). Unlike other treatments, such as antibiotics and neuromuscular blockers, there are currently no guidelines on the concentrations to use in skin tests for biotherapies. We propose conducting prospective clinical research to scientifically establish the concentrations to be used when investigating hypersensitivity to a biotherapy, in line with best practice recommendations for drug skin testing.

Background: \- Recent advances in cancer research have led to new therapies to treat the disease. It is important to continue these advances and discover new ones. To do that, researchers need tissue samples from solid tumors. This study will collect such samples from people already scheduled to have a procedure at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center (NIHCC). Objectives: \- To collect tissue samples for use in studying new ways to treat tumors. Eligibility: * Adults 18 years and older, with a precancerous or cancerous solid tumor who are scheduled to have surgery or a biopsy at the NIHCC. * Children under the age of 18 but who are older than 2 years of age are eligible to be enrolled on the research sample collection portion of this study if they will have a biopsy or surgery as part of their medical care. Design: * Before their procedure, participants will have a small blood sample taken. * Some participants will undergo leukapheresis. In this procedure, blood is removed through a tube in one arm and circulated through a machine that removes white blood cells. The blood, minus the white blood cells, is returned through a tube in the other arm. The procedure takes 3-4 hours. * For all participants, during the surgery or biopsy, pieces of the tumor and pieces of normal tissue near it will be removed for this study. The rest of the tumor or precancerous growth will be sent to a lab for analysis. * Participants will return to the clinic about 6 weeks after the operation for a routine checkup. Some may have to return for additional follow-up.

Malignant hilar biliary obstruction is a condition in which the bile ducts near the liver become blocked due to cancer. This blockage can lead to jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), itching, infection, and impaired liver function. To relieve the obstruction, doctors commonly perform procedures to drain bile and restore its flow. There are different techniques available for biliary drainage. One common method is percutaneous transpapillary internal-external drainage, in which a catheter is placed through the liver and across the natural opening of the bile duct into the intestine. Another approach is percutaneous suprapapillary drainage using a self-expanding metal stent, which allows bile to drain without crossing into the intestine and may reduce the risk of contamination and infection. Currently, there is no clear consensus on which of these two techniques is safer or more effective for patients with malignant proximal biliary obstruction. Some studies suggest that avoiding manipulation of the intestinal opening of the bile duct may reduce complications such as infection, but high-quality comparative evidence is lacking. The purpose of this study is to compare percutaneous suprapapillary drainage with a self-expanding metal stent versus routine percutaneous transpapillary internal-external drainage in patients with malignant proximal biliary obstruction. The study aims to compare the rate of drainage-related complications between the two techniques, as well as to evaluate treatment success, stent patency, and the need for reintervention. In addition, in patients with potentially resectable disease undergoing preoperative biliary drainage, the study will assess and compare surgical outcomes between the two approaches. The results of this study may help determine the safest and most effective drainage strategy for these patients and improve future clinical decision-making.

Background: One way to treat liver cancer is to deliver chemotherapy drugs only to the liver (and not to the whole body). Researchers want to see if adding the drug PDS01ADC can improve the treatment. The drug triggers the immune system to fight cancer.\<TAB\> Objective: To see if treatment with HAIPs to deliver liver-directed FUDR and Dexamethasone chemotherapy in combination with PDS01ADC is effective for certain cancers. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older who have cancer of the bile ducts that is only in the liver, or colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver, or cancer of the adrenal glands that has spread to the liver, who are also receiving or planning to receive standard systemic chemotherapy for their disease. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood tests Pregnancy test (if needed) Tumor biopsy (if needed) Electrocardiogram Computed tomography (CT) scans Participants will have an abdominal operation. A catheter will be placed into an artery that feeds blood to the liver. The catheter will then be attached to the HAIP. The HAIP will lay under the skin on the left side of the abdomen. All participants will have liver-directed FUDR and Dexamethasone chemotherapy drugs or heparin with saline infused into the HAIP every 2 weeks. PDS01ADC will be injected under the skin every 4 weeks. They will receive this treatment until their cancer gets worse or they have bad side effects. Participants will also receive standard systemic chemotherapy for their disease, assigned based on diagnosis, through an IV by their medical oncologist (at NIH or by a local provider) every 2 weeks. Participants will have 2 study visits at NIH each month. They will have CT scans every 8 weeks. At visits, they will repeat some screening tests. Participants will have a follow-up visit 1 month after treatment ends. Then they will be contacted every 6 months for 5 years.

This example phase 1/2, open-label, biomarker-selected study evaluates EB-HC01, an allogeneic dual-target CARNK product composed of a 1:1 mixture of HER2-CAR-NK and CEACAM5-CAR-NK cells, in adults with unresectable or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma or other biliary tract cancers after standard therapy. Part A determines safety, dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) after reduced-intensity lymphodepletion. Part B evaluates preliminary anti-tumor activity, CAR-NK persistence, and biomarker-response associations.

This is a Phase 2 study of GV20-0251 in combination with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibodies (including tislelizumab and toripalimab) for the treatment of participants with unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic solid tumors who are refractory to, intolerant of, or ineligible for standard of care.

This is a study of LY4337713 in participants with certain types of cancer that is advanced or has spread. Participants must have cancer with high levels of a protein called fibroblast activation protein (FAP). The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety, side effects, and efficacy of LY4337713. In addition, this study will evaluate how much LY4337713 gets into the bloodstream, how it is broken down, and how long it takes the body to get rid of it. For each participant, the study will last about 5 years.

The purpose of the project is to set up a national, prospective, longitudinal, multicenter cohort study with associated satellites, a tumor registry platform, to document uniform data on characteristics, molecular diagnostics, treatment and course of disease, to collect patient-reported outcomes and to establish a decentralized biobank for patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) or Cholangiocarcinoma (CCC) in Germany.

The objective of this expanded access program is to provide ulixertinib (BVD-523) for compassionate use in advanced cancer patients with MAPK pathway-altered solid tumor(s), including but not limited to KRAS, NRAS, HRAS, BRAF, MEK, and ERK mutations who have incomplete response to or have exhausted available therapies. Ulixertinib is available for treatment as monotherapy or in combination with other clinically tolerable agent(s), conditionally approved by the drug manufacturer.

This study aims to establish and optimize the trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (Trop2)-targeted immuno-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (immunoPET/CT) imaging method and its physiological and pathological distribution characteristics, based on which the diagnostic efficacy of the above imaging agents in solid tumors (including uroepithelial cancer, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, liver cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, thyroid cancer, head and neck cancer) will be evaluated.

Cholangiocarcinoma remains difficult to diagnose because of the limited sensitivity of currently available endobiliary sampling techniques. Cholangioscopy-guided biopsies performed with the SPYGLASS™ DS system have improved tissue acquisition compared with conventional brushing techniques, but diagnostic sensitivity remains suboptimal, partly because of the small diameter of the dedicated biopsy forceps. The EYEMAX® cholangioscopy system has a larger working channel, potentially allowing the use of larger biopsy forceps and improved tissue acquisition. This multicenter randomized study aims to compare the diagnostic performance of EYEMAX® versus SPYGLASS™ DS for the diagnosis of malignant biliary strictures. The primary objective is to compare the positive diagnostic yield of the first four cholangioscopy-guided biopsies obtained with each system in patients with adenocarcinomatous biliary strictures.

This open label, non-randomized, multi-center, pragmatic study aims to establish whether patients with rare tumors can benefit from matched molecular therapy as dictated by their next-generation sequencing (NGS) results.

This study tests whether adding becotatug vedotin (EGFR-ADC) to standard chemotherapy plus immunotherapy improves outcomes compared to chemotherapy plus immunotherapy alone as first-line treatment for patients with advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer whose tumors carry EGFR mutations. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the experimental combination (becotatug vedotin + pucotenlimab + gemcitabine + cisplatin) or the control combination (pucotenlimab + gemcitabine + cisplatin). The main goal is to see if the experimental group has a higher objective response rate (tumor shrinkage rate). This is a randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter study led by Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University, with Dr. Chen Mingyu as the principal investigator.

Background: Fibroblast-activation protein (FAP) is an enzyme that appears in high numbers in cancer-associated fibroblasts of certain cancer types. \[18F\]FAPI-74 is a new PET (positron emission tomography) tracer, a substance that is injected into a person s body before an imaging scan. Researchers believe that \[18F\]FAPI-74 PET imaging may be able to visualize cancer more effectively than the approved tracers. If so, the new tracer would make it easier to find FAP-positive tumors in the body. Objective: To see if \[18F\]FAPI-74 PET scan is as good or better than other imaging methods for detecting certain cancers. Eligibility: People aged 18 years or older with one of these cancer types: pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), gastric cancer, bladder cancer, ovarian cancer, pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL), small cell lung cancer (SCLC) or extrapulmonary neuroendocrine cancer (EP-NEC), mesothelioma or sarcoma. Participants must be scheduled or intended to receive treatment for cancer. Design: Participants will have 2 baseline scans: an \[18F\]FAPI-74, and the approved tracer \[18F\]-FDG. The \[18F\]FAPI-74 will be infused through a needle inserted into a vein. About 1 hour later, the participant will undergo imaging. Within 1 week, participants will undergo the same scanning procedures with the approved tracer. If the baseline scan with \[18F\]FAPI-74 shows the tumor(s), scans with this tracer will be repeated when their regular treatment regimen calls for scans again. If the scan with the regular FDG also show tumors, this scan will be repeated within the same week as the repeated \[18F\]FAPI-74 scan. If \[18F\]-FAPi PET scan shows no tumor(s), scans will not be repeated. If the participant's cancer progresses within 2 years, scans may be repeated. Follow-up calls will continue for 2 years.

BOLD-100 is an intravenously administered sterile solution containing the ruthenium-based small molecule. BOLD-100 has been shown to preferentially decrease the expression of GRP78 in tumour cells and ER stressed cells when compared to normal cells. BOLD-100 will be combined with cytotoxic FOLFOX chemotherapy in this study, with a dose escalation cohort to ensure tolerability and safety, followed by a cohort expansion phase.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the diagnostic value of CAIX protein specific probe 18F-T2 in PET/CT imaging in participants with solid tumors. It will also assess the safety, tolerability and radiation dosimetry of 18F-T2.
