Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is an observational study intended to validate results of a previous study done at the Mayo Clinic. Patients are treated with combination chemotherapy and radiation and maintained on oral Xeloda until they can receive liver transplant. A staging laparotomy is performed before chemoradiation in order to identify patients who will most benefit from the treatment and to improve outcomes.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Observation data collection study.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
1

Patients with unresectable cholangiocarcinoma.

Other: Observation data collection study.
This is a data collection study where the main purpose is to collect information about the treatments patients receive for their unresectable cholangiocarcinoma.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Proportion of patients withdrawn due to toxicity and other treatment related events. [Completion of treatment for all patients (estimated to be 18 years total)]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Proportion of patients who respond to treatment [Completion of treatment for all patients (estimated to be 18 years total)]

    -Response is defined as an absence of progressive disease or metastasis, so that the patient remains a candidate for liver transplantation

  2. Overall survival [Completion of treatment for all patients (estimated to be 18 years total)]

  3. Disease-free survival [Completion of treatment for all patients (estimated to be 18 years total)]
