Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCK) is a rare tumor (2000 new cases/year in France) with very poor prognosis (overall survival \< 3% at 5 years). Less than 20% of patients may benefit from curative surgical resection and most patients have medical treatment by palliative treatment by palliative chemotherapy. It is not standard first-line chemotherapy validated for unresectable CCK, but the best objective response rate (OR) and overall survival (OS) are observed with gemcitabine and platinum associations (OR 24 to 36% and OS between 9.5 to 15.4 months). In case of tumor progression ater this first line therapy, no treatment is currently being validated.

RADIOEMBOLIZATION (RE) is a new, transarterial approach to radiation therapy using 90 Yttrium microspheres.

In the patients with unresectable CCK , the first pilot studies showed interesting results with rates of OR 45 to 90% and a median OS of 14.9 mots and an acceptable safety.

Study Hypothesis : RE could help achieve tumor stabilization in patients with intra-hepatic CCK in tumor progression after first-line therapy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Extended description of the protocol, including information not already contained in other fields, such as comparison studied.

It is a pilot study including 20 patients with unresectable intra-hepatic CCK in tumor progression after first-line therapy.

Description of the protocol :

1. Information and signed CONSENTMENT
2. Preparatory phase : pre-treatment mesenteric angiography and technetium-99m macroaggregated albumin scans are performed to assess gastrointestinal flow and lung shunting.
3. Therapeutic phase : intra-arterial administration of resin-based microspheres ( SIRSPHERES, SIRTEX). The RE can be performed in 2 sessions, especially if liver disease is bi-lobar.
4. Follow up to J15,M1,M2,M4 and M6 : clinical examination and imaging evaluation ( scans and /or MRI)
