New combo therapy aims to keep aggressive liver cancer from coming back

NCT ID NCT05967182

Summary

This study is testing if adding the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab to standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine and cisplatin) helps people with a type of bile duct cancer in the liver stay cancer-free longer after surgery. The treatment is given both before and after the operation. Researchers will enroll about 24 adults with high-risk but operable tumors to see if this combination improves outcomes compared to standard chemo and surgery alone.
