• 1 other identifier: CHN-PLAGH-BT-024
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 30

Brief Summary

This is a single-arm, phase I/II trial in biliary tract cancer (BTC) patients. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effect of PD-1 inhibitor in combination with gemcitabine/cisplatin chemotherapy in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic BTCs. The primary objective: 6-month progression free survival (PFS). The second objectives: objective clinical response(according to RECIST version 1.1), safety, symptom control and quality of life (QoL) (according to EORTC QoL C30 and BIL 21), overall survival. The exploratory objectives: assessment of immunological response (cytokines, lymphocyte phenotype, immunoglobulins), and evaluation of pathological, immunological and clinical predictive factors for response/toxicity.

Conditions

Biliary Tract Cancer

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• The percentage of patients alive and without progression at 6 months

  The primary objective of this trial is the progression free survival (PFS) at 6 months in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic BTCs treated with PD-1 inhibitor in combination with gemcitabine plus cisplatin. Progression will be defined clinically or on imaging as per immune related response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (irRECIST) definition

  6 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• The percentage of patients that respond to combination treatment

  Enrolled patients will be followed until death, withdrawal from study, or until 2 years.

• Median overall survival time

  Patients will be followed until death, withdrawal from study, or until 2 years.

• List of adverse event frequency and grade

  Up to 120 days after last administration of PD-1 inhibitor

Study Arms (1)

PD-1 inhibitor + Gemcitabine+Cisplatin

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be enrolled in the experimental arm and will receive Gemcitabine on day 1 and 5 (1000mg/m2 ) +Cisplatin on day 1(75mg/m2)+ PD-1 inhibitor on day 3 (Nivolumab 3mg/kg, or SHR-1210 200mg) every 3 weeks. If there is continued benefit after 6 months, PD-1 inhibitor will be administered as maintenance treatment until tumor progression or death.

Drug: PD-1 inhibitor + Gemcitabine + Cisplatin

Interventions

PD-1 inhibitor + Gemcitabine + Cisplatin DRUG

Gemcitabine: 1000mg/m2 on day 1 and 5 every 3 weeks. Cisplatin: 75mg/m2 on day 1 every 3 weeks. PD-1 inhibitor: Nivolumab 3mg/kg, or SHR-1210 200mg.

Also known as: Nivolumab or SHR-1210

PD-1 inhibitor + Gemcitabine+Cisplatin

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years - 75 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• Age≥18 years with estimated life expectancy \>3 months.
• Histopathological/cytological diagnosis of unresectable or recurrent / metastatic biliary tract carcinoma (intra-hepatic, extrahepatic or gall bladder) and had at least one measurable disease (≥1cm) by CT or MRI.
• Patients should provide samples of tumor tissue biopsied or resected no more than 3 months before enrollment and be willing to accept biopsy in the process of the study.
• Patients may have received prior radiotherapy,chemotherapy,or other local ablative therapies, which completed ≥ 4 weeks prior to registration AND patient has recovered to \<= grade 1 toxicity.
• ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) performance status of 0-2.
• Adequate organ and marrow function obtained ≤ 2 weeks prior to registration as defined below:
• leukocytes greater than or equal to 3.0 x 10\^9/L absolute neutrophil count greater than or equal to 1.0 x 10\^9/L platelets greater than or equal to 100 x 10\^9/L hemoglobin greater than or equal to 90 g/L total bilirubin less than or equal to 2 xULN serum albumin should be no less than 25g/L ALT or AST less than 2 xULN serum creatinine less than 1.5 x ULN
• Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
• women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, and up to 120 days after the last dose of the drug.

You may not qualify if:

• Active, known or suspected autoimmune diseases.
• Known brain metastases or active central nervous system (CNS). If patients with CNS metastases were treated with radiotherapy for at least 3 months prior to enrollment and have no central nervous symptoms and are off corticosteroids, they will be eligible but will need a Brain MRI prior to enrollment.
• Participants are being treated with either corticosteroids (\>10 mg daily prednisone equivalent) or other immunosuppressive medications within 14 days of enrollment.
• Prior therapy with anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-CTLA-4 antibody (including ipilimumab or any other antibody specifically targeting T-cell costimulation or checkpoint pathways).
• History of severe hypersensitive reactions to other monoclonal antibodies.
• History of allergy or intolerance to study drug components.
• Substance abuse, medical, psychological or social conditions that may interfere with the patient's participation in the study or evaluation of the study results.
• History or concurrent condition of interstitial lung disease of any grade or severely impaired pulmonary function.
• Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including ongoing or active systemic infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia (excluding insignificant sinus bradycardia and sinus tachycardia) or psychiatric illness/social situations and any other illness that would limit compliance with study requirements and jeopardize the safety of the patient.
• History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
• Pregnant or breast-feeding patients. Women of childbearing potential must have a pregnancy test performed within 7 days before the enrollment, and a negative result must be documented.
• Previous or concurrent cancer within 3 years prior to treatment start EXCEPT for curatively treated cervical cancer in situ, non-melanoma skin cancer, superficial bladder tumors \[Ta (non-invasive tumor), Tis (carcinoma in situ) and T1 (tumor invades lamina propria)\].
• Vaccination within 30 days of study enrollment.
• Active bleeding or known hemorrhagic tendency.
• Patients with unhealed surgical wounds for more than 30 days.
