This phase II trial tests how well giving durvalumab with standard chemotherapy, gemcitabine and cisplatin, before surgery works in treating patients with high risk liver cancer (cholangiocarcinoma) that can be removed by surgery (resectable). Durvalumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow …
The goal of this study is to test two commercially available technologies for their ability to detect treatment response in patients with cervical cancer following surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy: one based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR; NavDx) and the other on branched DNA (Quantivirus HPV \[DNA\]).
