NCT02482454

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether combining of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK) transfusion can prolong survival of patients with cholangiocarcinoma.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Recurrence-free survival

    Recurrence-free survival (RFS) was defined as the time from the date of RFA to the date of recurrence or the date of the last follow-up.

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Adverse events

    4 weeks

Study Arms (2)

RFA alone

OTHER

Patients undergo radiofrequency ablation alone.

Procedure: Radiofrequency ablation

RFA+CIK

EXPERIMENTAL

Autologous cytokine-induced killer cells were transfer via venous one week after RFA

Procedure: Radiofrequency ablationBiological: Cytokine-induced killer cells

Interventions

Radiofrequency ablation is performed percutaneously under CT/US guidance

Also known as: RFA
RFA aloneRFA+CIK

The patients received autologous cytokine-induced killer cells transfusion one week after RFA treatment.

Also known as: CIK
RFA+CIK
