Brief Summary

Short
title : Perioperative Gemcitabine based chemotherapy vs
surgery and adjuvant capecitabine with chemoradiation in operable GBC
Indication
Patients
with operable gallbladder cancer to find out whether the addition of
chemotherapy before the surgery improves the survival.
Type of study
Randomized,
open label phase III clinical trial
Study design
Patients
with operable Gall Bladder Cancer will undergo randomization into one of two
arms
Arm A (Perioperative Arm)
Patients
will receive perioperative therapy in this arm - Surgery will be sandwiched
between chemotherapy before and after surgery in this arm.
Gemcitabine
(G) 800mg/m2 plus Nab-paclitaxel (NabP) 100mg/m2 plus Cisplatin (C) 25mg/m2
(GCNabP)
D1, D8,
q 21 days
1 cycle
= 21 days
Patient
will receive 2-4 cycles of GCNabP followed by assessment for surgery.
Post-surgery, patient will receive 2-4 cycles of GC. Patient will be planned
for a total of 6 to 8 cycles of chemotherapy perioperatively.
Arm B –(Surgery followed by Capecitabine and
capecitabine radiation concurrently)
Patient
will undergo upfront surgery in this arm, followed by adjuvant oral
chemotherapy.
