About this trial
To evaluate the efficacy and immune microenvironment changes in treatment-naïve advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC) patients receiving first-line standard therapy with gemcitabine/cisplatin (GemCis) combined with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Age ≥18 years.
Histologically confirmed unresectable/metastatic cholangiocarcinoma (intrahepatic, extrahepatic, or gallbladder).
No prior systemic anticancer therapy (chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy).
Planned to receive GemCis+PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor as standard first-line treatment.
Disqualifiers
Prior systemic therapy.
Active autoimmune disease requiring immunosuppression.
Active infection requiring IV antibiotics.
HIV-positive or active HBV/HCV infection (HBsAg+ with HBV DNA ≥2000 IU/mL; HCV RNA+).
Trial population
This is a prospective, non-interventional, observational study evaluating the efficacy and immune microenvironment changes in treatment-naïve advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC) patients receiving first-line standard therapy with gemcitabine/cisplatin (GemCis) combined with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.
Trial design
Cohort
Prospective
Treatments tested in this trial
GemCis plus PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor
DrugGemcitabine: 1000 mg/m², intravenous infusion, on Day 1 and Day 8 Cisplatin: 25 mg/m², intravenous infusion, on Day 1 and Day 8 PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor: An approved agent (e.g., Pembrolizumab, Nivolumab, Atezolizumab, etc.) will be selected based on clinical practice and administered at standard doses and schedules. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days, continuing until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient/physician decision to discontinue.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Overall survival (OS) evaluated by the investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1
OS is defined as the time from study treatment to the date of death of the subject, regardless of the cause of death.
Secondary outcomes
Objective Response Rate (ORR) evaluated by the investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who have a confirmed complete response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions) or partial response (PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters). Responses are according to RECIST 1.1 as assessed by investigator.
Disease control rate (DCR) evaluated by the investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1
DCR is defined as the proportion of patients with complete response (CR), partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD).
Duration of Response (DOR) evaluated by the investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1
DOR is defined as the time from first documented complete or partial response until disease progression, death from any cause, or censoring at date of last tumor assessment.
Time to Response (TTR) evaluated by the investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1
TTR is defined as the time from the start of treatment until the first objective observation of a response (either partial response, PR, or complete response, CR), provided that the response is subsequently confirmed
