Brief Summary
In recent years, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)had achieved encouraging results in monitoring recurrence and metastasis after surgery, and has potential clinical application value. The presence of ctDNA after surgery predicts very poor recurrence-free survival, whereas its absence predicts a low risk of recurrence. The benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy for ctDNA-positive patients is not well understood.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
ctDNA guided adjuvant chemotherapy versus Translational sub study
To demonstrate the superiority of an escalation strategy of ctDNA-guided adjuvant chemotherapy over standard-of-care treatment, 2-year disease-free survival (DFS) was measured as 2-year Disease-Free Survival (DFS) in high-risk stage II-III BTC patients with no evidence of minimal residual disease (ctDNA-negative).
Up to 60 months
Sensitivity of postoperative ctDNA in monitoring recurrence and metastasis
Number of patients with ctDNA positive and imaging confirmed recurrence or metastasis / number of all imaging confirmed recurrence or metastasis
Up to 60 months
Specificity of postoperative ctDNA in monitoring recurrence and metastasis
Number of patients with ctDNA negative and no recurrence and metastasis confirmed by imaging / number of patients with no recurrence and metastasis confirmed by imaging
Up to 60 months
Accuracy of postoperative ctDNA in monitoring recurrence and metastasis
True positive/ctDNA-positive samples
Up to 60 months
Secondary Outcomes (2)
overall survival (OS)
From date of randomization until the date of first documented date of death from any cause, assessed up to 60 months.
ctDNA clearance rate
Up to 60 months
Study Arms (2)
Group 1: Patients testing negative for ctDNA treated using standard of care treatment
NO INTERVENTIONPostoperative ctDNA-negative patients receive oral Teysuno (S-1) for adjuvant therapy。
Group 2: Patients with a positive ctDNA test are treated with an escalation strategy
EXPERIMENTALPostoperative ctDNA-positive patients receive intravenous combined oral Teysuno (S-1) for adjuvant therapy。
Interventions
Oral combined with intravenous S-1 for ctDNA-positive patients (escalating treatment strategy)
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- \) Patients with pathologically confirmed BTCs according to the UICC/AJCC TNM staging system (8th edition 2017) for stage II-III tumours. Patients eligible for radical resection of BTCs. No synchronous or metastatic malignant tumour found in other organs other than the primary tumor.
- \) Personal status (PS) score as over 80 or Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score as 0 \~ 2.
- )With expected survival of more than 12 months. 4) Radical operation performed.
You may not qualify if:
- \) Patients with positive surgical margins and residual lesions after biliary tract tumor surgery.
- \) Blood transfusion performed during operation or within 2 weeks before operation.
- \) Have a history of other malignant tumors within 5 years.
