Conditions

Summary

Background: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is an aggressive cancer of the bile ducts. People with CCA have few treatment options and poor survival. Researchers want to see if a new drug can stop or slow CCA growth. Objective: To find the safest and most effective dose of tivozanib to treat CCA and learn its overall response rate. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older with CCA not removable with surgery and have been treated with at least one type of chemotherapy. Design: Participants will be screened with the following: * Medical history * Physical exam * Assessment of their ability to do daily activities * Medicine review * Blood tests, including thyroid function tests * Urine tests * Electrocardiogram, to check heart function * Pregnancy test, if needed * Tumor biopsy, if needed * Computed tomography scans * Magnetic resonance imaging, if needed Some screening tests may be repeated during the study. Participants will be asked to enroll in protocol #13C0176. This will allow any remaining tumor or blood samples to be used in future research. Participants will take tivozanib by mouth, once a day for 21 days per cycle or every other day per cycle. Each cycle is 28 days. They can take the drug until they have bad side effects, their CCA gets worse, or if they become pregnant. They will record their blood pressure twice daily at home. They will also keep a medication diary of each dose of tivozanib they take and any side effects. Participants will have study visits before starting each new cycle and every 8 weeks. They will also have a follow-up visit 30 days after treatment ends at NIH, or if they are unable to come to NIH by phone, videocall, or other NIH-approved platform. Then they will be contacted 6 and 12 months later, and then once a year. ...

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This trial is testing a drug called tivozanib in people with bile duct or gallbladder cancer (biliary tract cancer) that cannot be removed by surgery and has already been treated with chemotherapy. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older - You have been diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma or gallbladder cancer confirmed by biopsy - Your cancer cannot be surgically removed - You have already received first-line chemotherapy for this cancer - You are reasonably active and able to care for yourself (ECOG score 0–2) - Your blood counts, liver, and kidney function are within acceptable ranges **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have not yet tried chemotherapy for this cancer - You are under 18 years old - You are pregnant or unwilling to use contraception - Your organ function (liver, kidneys, blood) does not meet the required levels Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

DRUGTivozanib

Oral tivozanib taken daily for Days 1-21 continuously (of each 28-day cycle) followed with 7 days off medication (except for patients in DL-1, with dosing every other day of the 28-day cycle). Phase I: The starting dose (DL1) is 0.89 mg taken once a day continuously for Days 1-21 with 1 week off medication (except for those patients assigned to DL-1, where tivozanib should be taken every other day, around 48 hours apart in 28-day cycle). Patients may escalate to 1.34 mg taken once a day (DL2) continuously for Days 1-21 with 1 week off medication for their second cycle if there are no dose-limiting toxicities. Phase II: Tivozanib dose level will be at the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) established in Phase I.
