Brief Summary

Cholangiocarcinoma, is a malignant gastrointestinal tumor of low incidence with a poor prognosis. Chemotherapy is the most common treatment for advanced disease. On the basis of a phase III clinical study, cisplatin plus gemcitabine is considered standard first-line treatment in advanced cholangiocarcinoma patients, but there is no established second line therapy.

Since fluorouracil and leucovorin combined with irinotecan and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX) appears to be safe and demonstrated efficacy in clinical studies of advanced pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer and a phase I study in cholangiocarcinoma, this combination could be an effective second-line treatment for patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma.

• Age from 18 to 75 year.
• WHO/ECOG performance status 0-2.
• Patients who received at least 3 cycles of gemcitabine/cisplatin in the first line.
• Adequate hematological function (WBC > 3.0 x 109/L, platelets > 100 x109/L)
• Adequate hepatic function (bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper normal limit (ULN); ALAT or ASAT <5x ULN in case of liver metastases and < 2.5 x ULN in absence of liver metastases.
• Adequate renal function (creatinine clearance > 60 ml/min; creatinine <120 µmol/L)
• Absence of cardiac insufficiency, chest pain (not medically controlled) and myocardial infarction in the 12 months preceding study entry.
