Official title

Combined Infusion System to Deliver Chemotherapy Regionally to the Liver

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This is a single-site, open-label continued access study/treatment protocol under a treatment IDE. In addition to treating patients, the primary objective of this study is to assess the safety of using the Medtronic SynchroMed II programmable pump combined with the Intera tapered catheter for hepatic artery infusion (HAI) of a standard chemotherapy (FUDR) drug for adults with a clinical or biopsy-proven diagnosis of colorectal cancer metastatic to the liver or intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. After successful implantation, the combined pump and catheter system will be evaluated using a nuclear scan in the postoperative period, which is standard procedure to confirm that the pump is functioning prior to HAI of FUDR. Monitoring for safety will include a record of residual pump volume when it is emptied (every 2-12 weeks depending on whether the pump is being used for chemotherapy infusion) to determine if the pump is still working and surveillance of routine cross-sectional imaging (usually every 2-6 months) for any sign of a pump or catheter problem. Patients will be monitored for the safety of the pump/catheter combination for up to 5 years or pump removal/study withdrawal.
