OVERVIEW – in layman’s terms (150 words max)
	Patients with advanced biliary cancer (gallbladder or cholangiocarcinoma) previously untreated with systemic chemotherapy will receive gemcitabine + cisplatin + CPI-613 (targets enzymes that are involved in cancer cell energy metabolism).
Enrollment

Inclusion Criteria – Patients Must:
	Tissue diagnosis of advanced, surgically inoperable biliary cancer No prior systemic chemotherapy for advanced cancer May have previously undergone radiation, liver directed therapy or surgery Must have measurable disease on CT or MR scans Age >= 18 years Performance status ECOG 0 or 1 Must be able to tolerate CT or MRI scans Adequate organ function (per protocol)
Exclusion Criteria – Patients Must NOT:
	No brain metastasis unless treated and stable for 3 months Underwent a major surgical procedure < 4 weeks prior to enrollment No prior organ transplantation No ongoing or uncontrolled infection Must not be pregnant or breast feeding No other active cancer (with some exceptions such as localized skin cancer) No active heart disease including symptomatic heart failure (NYHA class 3 or 4), unstable angina pectoris, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia or interstitial lung disease No prisoners or subjects who are involuntarily incarcerated, or compulsorily detained Prolonged QTcF interval >480 msec on ECG Psychiatric illness, other significant medical illness, or social situation which may limit compliance
