Combining Conditional Probabilities

Let say I know the probabilities of:
p(x|a,b)
p(x|b,c)
p(a), p(b), p(c), p(x)
How can I use this to say anything about:
p(x|a,b,c)
Obviously there is not enough information to fully
determine p(x|a,b,c), but I only need a reasonable
approximation.
Feel free to suggest any assumptions that would simplify
the problem enough to get some sort of answer.
What I know about probability isn't enough to solve
my problem. Intend to learn more soon, but for now
I would appreciate some help, thanks.
