Chemotherapy Before & After Surgery in Patients With Resectable Gallbladder Cancer
RandomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment
Summary
This phase III trial studies how well chemotherapy before and after surgery works in treating participants with gallbladder cancer that can be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, gemcitabine, and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy before and after surgery may kill more tumor cells.
