Summary

An unmet medical need exists for the successful therapy of patients with advanced hepatocellular and biliary tract malignances, with few and short lived disease responses to chemotherapy for both advanced stage hepatic and biliary carcinomas. Pre-clinical data shows cooperative antitumor activity between an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor and taxanes. The efficacy of erlotinib in combination with docetaxel will be assessed in this trial.
