a clinical study of a preoperative translational therapy for unresectable gallbladder cancer

Conditions: Unresectable Gallbladder Cancer

Summary: this is an open-label,multicenter ,non-randomized,single arm exploratory study. the objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pd-1 antibody plus gemox as preoperative translational therapy for unresectable gallbladder cancer.

the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of carrilizumab in combination with gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (gemox) as a preoperative conversion therapy for unresectable gallbladder cancer. patients with unresectable gallbladder cancer were enrolled to receive gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 d1, d8 + oxaliplatin 100 mg/m2, d1 + carrilizumab 200 mg, d1, in 21-day cycles for 6-8 cycles, with changes in serum tumor parameters assessed at each course and abdominal cta performed every two courses.the above treatment was terminated if the ct evaluation revealed disease progression, and the investigator could adjust the treatment regimen according to the guideline. the primary outcome measure of this study is the tumor radical resection rate; secondary outcome measure are objective response rate, disease control rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival. the safety indicators are the incidence and severity of adverse events (ae) and serious adverse events (sae) according to nci-ctcaev5.0 criteria. thirty-seven cases are expected to be enrolled in this study.

Eligibility criteria:
