Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with a confirmed diagnosis of resectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma at stages Ib-IIIb.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with serious complications, severe allergies, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a combination therapy involving Adebrelimab and Apatinib, along with HAIC, for patients with resectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Participants will undergo neoadjuvant treatment for two cycles before surgery, followed by adjuvant therapy for up to one year post-surgery. The study seeks to improve patient survival rates and extend the time before cancer recurrence after surgical intervention.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly enhance survival rates and reduce recurrence in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
How similar studies have gone: While the specific combination of Adebrelimab and Apatinib is novel, similar approaches in treating cholangiocarcinoma have shown promise in other studies.
