Safety of using these drugs in combination will also be evaluated. Xermelo® is not currently approved for use in BTC.
Read MorePatients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who enroll in this study will receive either Melphalan with the investigational Hepatic Delivery System (called Melphalan/HDS) or Cisplatin and Gemcitabine alone, which is standard of care. Patients who enroll will receive gem/cis followed by melphalan, compared to gem/cis.
