| Abstract | Background Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is amongst the most common primary liver tumors worldwide. CCA carries a bad prognosis prompting research to establish new treatment modalities other than surgery and the current chemotherapeutic regimens adopted. Hence, this trial explores a new therapeutic approach, to combine stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and immunotherapy (Nivolumab), and asses its clinical benefit and safety profile after induction chemotherapy in CCA. Methodology This is a Phase II open-label, single-arm, multicenter study that investigates Nivolumab (PD-1 inhibitor) treatment at Day 1 followed by SBRT (30 Gy in 3 to 5 fractions) at Day 8, then monthly Nivolumab in 40 patients with non-resectable locally advanced, metastatic or recurrent intrahepatic or extrahepatic CCA. Eligible patients were those above 18 years of age with a pathologically and radiologically confirmed diagnosis of non-resectable locally advanced or metastatic or recurrent intrahepatic or extrahepatic CCA, following 4 cycles of cisplatin-based chemotherapy with an estimated life expectancy of more than 3 months, among other criteria. The primary endpoint is the progression free survival (PFS) rate at 8 months and disease control rate (DCR). The secondary endpoints are overall survival (OS), tumor response rate (TRR), duration of response, evaluation of biomarkers: CD3 + , CD4 + and CD8 + T cell infiltration, as well as any change in the PD-L1 expression through percutaneous core biopsy when compared with the baseline biopsy following 1 cycle of Nivolumab and SBRT. Discussion SRBT alone showed promising results in the literature by both inducing the immune system locally and having abscopal effects on distant metastases. Moreover, given the prevalence of PD-L1 in solid tumors, targeting it or its receptor has become the mainstay of novel immunotherapeutic drugs use. A combination of both has never been explored in the scope of CCA and that is the aim of this study. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04648319 , April 20, 2018. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
