Study:
A Phase 2 Study of AZD2171 (Cediranib) With Modified FOLFOX6 in Patients With Advanced Biliary Cancers
Rationale:
n/a
Purpose:
This phase II trial is studying how well giving cediranib maleate together with combination
chemotherapy works in treating patients with advanced biliary cancers. Cediranib maleate may
stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth or by
blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin,
leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor
cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving cediranib
maleate together with combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells
