In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Biliary tract cancer is a rare malignant neoplasm including intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IhCCA), extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (EhCCA) and Gallbladder cancer (GBC). Survival outcome of advanced BTCs are still poor and heterogeneity of tissue and molecular differences between BTCs limit the clinical studies in BTCs. Combination therapy of Gemcitabine and Cisplatin has become the standard of care after the ABC-02 trial. This trial demonstrated that the addition of cisplatin to gemcitabine improved survival outcomes compared to that with gemcitabine alone. However, the median overall survival (OS) of Gem/Cis chemotherapy is only about one year. Anti-Program cell death-1 (anti-PD-1) inhibitor monotherapy including Nivolumab (OPDIVO) had shown efficacy in refractory, advanced BTC. Various ICIs combined with Gem/Cis as the 1st line treatment in BTCs are under the trials. Combination of

📋 Eligibility rules (as published)
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Subjects with histologically- or cytologically-confirmed biliary tract cancer (including intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and gall bladder cancer) 2. HER2 positive biliary tract cancer (IHC 3+ or 2+ with ISH + (HER2/CEP17≥2.0) or ERBB2 gene copy number ≥ 6.0 by NGS) 3. Age (at the time of informed consent): 20 years and older 4. Previously untreated if unresectable/metastatic at initial diagnosis; or recurrent disease \>6 months after curative surgery or adjuvant therapy (allow up to 1 cycle of gemcitabine-based chemotherapy for advanced/unresectable or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma prior to enrollment) 5. Explicit and voluntary consent to participate in the study obtained using a signed and dated informed consent form clearly and fully describing the purpose, potential risks, and any other critical issues regarding the study 6. Subject with measurable lesions according to RECIST v. 1.1 7. ECOG Performance Status Score 0 or 1 8. Patients with a life expectancy of at least 3 months 9. Patients whose latest laboratory data meet the below criteria within 14 days before enrollment. White blood cells ≥2,000/mm3 and neutrophils ≥1,500/mm3 Platelets ≥100,000/mm3 Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL AST (GOT) and ALT (GPT) ≤3.0-fold the upper limit of normal (ULN) of the study site (or ≤5.0-fold the ULN of the study site in patients with liver metastases) Total bilirubin ≤1.5-fold the ULN of the study site Creatinine ≤1.5-fold the ULN of the study site or creatinine clearance (either the measured or estimated value using the Cockcroft-Gault equation) \>45 mL/min INR ≤1.5-fold or prothrombin time ≤1.5-fold the ULN of the study site aPTT ≤1.5-fold the ULN of the study site 10. Women of childbearing potential (including women with chemical menopause or no menstruation for other medical reasons) #1 must agree to use contraception#2 from the time of informed consent until 5 months or more after the last dose of the investigational product. Also, women must agree not to breastfeed from the time of informed consent until 5 months or more after the last dose of the investigational product. 11. Men must agree to use contraception#2 from the start of study treatment until 7 months or more after the last dose of the investigational product. * 1\. Women of childbearing potential are defined as all women after the onset of menstruation who are not postmenopausal and have not been surgically sterilized (e.g., hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy). Postmenopause is defined as amenorrhea for ≥12 consecutive months without specific reasons. Women using oral contraceptives, intrauterine devices, or mechanical contraception such as contraceptive barriers are regarded as having childbearing potential. * 2\. The subject must consent to use any of the following methods of contraception: vasectomy or condom for patients who are male or female subject's partner and tubal ligation, contraceptive diaphragm, intrauterine device, spermicide, or oral contraceptive for patients who are female or male subject's partner. 12. EF ≥ 50% via Transthoracic echocardiography or MUGA scan 13. Subjects willing to provide tumor biopsy tissue or excisional biopsy tissue. 14. Subjects with adequate organ function Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients treated with systemic chemotherapy, biologic therapy, immunotherapy, hormone therapy, or clinical trials for unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer. However, the following are excluded. 1. If disease recurrence occurs 6 months after the last dose of adjuvant chemotherapy, previous adjuvant chemotherapy is permitted. 2. 1 cycle of Gemcitabine-based anticancer therapy for locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma prior to enrollment in this trial is permitted. 2. Patients with multiple primary cancers (with the exception of completely resected basal cell carcinoma, stage I squamous cell carcinoma, carcinoma in situ, intramucosal carcinoma, or superficial bladder cancer, or any other cancer that has not recurred for at least 5 years) 3. Patients with residual adverse effects of prior therapy or effects of surgery that would affect the safety evaluation of the investigational product in the opinion of the investigator or sub-investigator. 4. Patients with current or past history of severe hypersensitivity to any other antibody products 5. Patients with concurrent autoimmune disease or history of chronic or recurrent autoimmune disease 6. Patients with a current or past history of interstitial lung disease or pulmonary fibrosis diagnosed based on imaging or clinical findings. Patients with radiation pneumonitis may be enrolled if the radiation pneumonitis has been confirmed as stable (beyond acute phase) without any concerns about recurrence. 7. Patients with concurrent diverticulitis or symptomatic gastrointestinal ulcerative disease 8. Patients with any metastasis in the brain or meninx that is symptomatic or requires treatment. Patients may be enrolled if the metastasis is asymptomatic and requires no treatment. 9. Patients with pericardial fluid, pleural effusion, or ascites requiring treatment 10. Patients with uncontrollable, tumor-related pain 11. Patients who have experienced a transient ischemic attack or cerebrovascular accident within 180 days before enrollment 12. Patients with a history of uncontrollable or significant cardiovascular disease meeting any of the following criteria: 1. Myocardial infarction within 180 days before enrollment 2. Uncontrollable angina pectoris within 180 days before enrollment 3. New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV congestive heart failure 4.
