Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients must have histologically confirmed, advanced or metastatic biliary tract carcinoma (including intrahepatic bile duct, hilum bile duct, extrahepatic bile duct and gallbladder), except ampulla vater cancer or combined hepatocholangiocarcinoma.
  • presence of at least one measurable tumor lesion which is defined as lesions that can be accurately measured in at least 1 dimension with longest diameter (LD) ≥20 mm using conventional techniques or ≥10 mm with spiral CT and MRI; measurable lymph nodes must be≥15 mm in the short axis.
  • Patients must have no history of prior chemotherapy for Biliary Tract Cancer, except those delivered as adjuvant setting that completed at least 6 months before documentation of recurrence by imaging study.
  • Patients with prior radiotherapy are eligible if the irradiated area does not involve the only source of measurable / evaluable disease.
  • Patients' baseline Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG)performance status must be less than or equal 1.
  • Patients' life expectancy must be 12 weeks or greater.
  • Patients' age must be more than or equal 20 years old.
  • Patients must have adequate bone marrow function, defined as white blood cell (WBC) count ≥3,500/ul, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) 1,500/ul, and platelet count ≥100,000/ul.
  • Patients must have adequate liver function and adequate renal function, defined as the following: serum alanine (ALT) 3 times upper normal limit, serum total bilirubin level less than or equal 2.0 mg/dL, and creatinine clearance rate (CCr) ≥ 60 mL/min ((based upon 24-hour urine collection or calculated by Cockcroft-Gault formula).

  • Patients with central nervous system metastasis
  • Patients with active infection
  • Pregnant or breast-nursing women
  • Patients with active cardiopulmonary disease or history of ischemic heart disease
  • Patients who have peripheral neuropathy \> Grade I of any etiology, presence of grade 2 or above ascites or pleural effusion, or ≥ grade 2 of diarrhea.
  • Patients who have serious concomitant systemic disorders incompatible with the study, i.e. poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, auto-immune disorders, cirrhosis of the liver, and the rest will be at the discretion of in-charged investigator.
