Preoperative Nab-paclitaxel, Cisplatin, and Gemcitabine Chemotherapy With or Without Infigratinib Targeted Therapy for the Treatment of Resectable Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma, The OPTIC Trial

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Trial end date: 2027-06-23

Summary

This phase II trial assesses the feasibility (including both safety and tolerability) of conducting Next Generation Sequencing and administering targeted therapy (infigratinib) in the preoperative setting for patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma that can be removed by surgery (resectable). Chemotherapy drugs, such as nab-paclitaxel, cisplatin, and gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Targeted therapy with infigratinib will bind to FGFR which can help stop tumor cell growth and cause tumor cell death. Giving chemotherapy and/or targeted therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller for resection and may help prevent the cancer from coming back. If a molecular profiling test shows a genetic change called an FGFR2 fusion, patients receive both chemotherapy and targeted therapy while patients without a FGFR2 fusion just receive chemotherapy. Giving targeted therapy based on molecular profile testing results prior to attempted resection of an intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma that has a risk for either not being able to be removed or for coming back after it has been removed may help improve treatment outcomes.
