Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 90 Y TARE (Y90) in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin in patients with unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC).
Detailed Description:
Gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy is the current standard for the treatment of unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. 90Y TARE combined with the current standard may be an ideal way to improve disease control in the liver as almost all patients die from their disease in the liver. The data from this trial would then be used to move to a phase II trial to determine efficacy to see if a phase III trial would be warranted. In addition, assessment of the molecular classification of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma could determine if there is difference in survival with chemotherapy and 90Y TARE. Finally, MRI before and after treatment will be used to determine if utilizing the percent increase of mean ADC correlates with survival.
