About this trial
This is a prospective, single-center, single-arm clinical study. It aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new combination therapy as a first-line treatment for patients with advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) who cannot be treated with surgery. The combined therapy includes hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) with Liposomal Irinotecan, 5-Fluorouracil, and Leucovorin, along with the oral targeted drug Lenvatinib and an intravenous PD-1 inhibitor (an immunotherapy). A total of 30 participants will be enrolled. The main goal of the study is to measure the Objective Response Rate (ORR), which is the percentage of patients whose cancer shrinks or disappears after treatment.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Aged 18 to 75 years.
Histologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC).
Liver function: Child-Pugh class A (score 5-6) or good class B (score ≤7).
At least one measurable lesion as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria.
Disqualifiers
History of other malignancies within the past 5 years (except cured carcinoma in situ or basal cell skin cancer).
Significant clinical bleeding symptoms or tendency within 3 months prior to treatment (e.g., >30 mL bleeding, hematemesis, melena, hematochezia), hemoptysis (>5 mL of fresh blood within 4 weeks). Venous/thrombotic events within the past 6 months (e.g., cerebrovascular accident, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism). Requirement for long-term anticoagulation (e.g., warfarin, heparin) or antiplatelet therapy (Aspirin ≥300 mg/day or Clopidogrel ≥75 mg/day).
Extensive distant metastasis (e.g., peritoneal metastasis, multiple bone/brain metastases).
Use of strong CYP3A4 inducers within 3 weeks prior to first dose, or use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors or strong UGT1A1 inhibitors within 3 weeks prior to first dose.

Treatments tested in this trial
Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy (HAIC) with Liposomal Irinotecan, 5-Fluorouracil, Leucovorin
Other interventionLiposomal Irinotecan (70 mg/m²) infused over 90 minutes, followed by Leucovorin (400 mg/m²) infused over 2 hours, and then 5-Fluorouracil (2400 mg/m²) infused over 24 hours via hepatic arterial infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. The number of treatment cycles (2 to 6) is determined by the investigator based on tumor response and tolerability after the initial 2 cycles.
Lenvatinib
DrugLenvatinib is administered orally at a dose of 8 mg once daily, continuously throughout each 21-day cycle.
PD-1 Inhibitor
DrugA PD-1 inhibitor (specific agent chosen at the investigator's discretion) is administered via intravenous infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle, approximately 24 hours prior to the initiation of HAIC.
