A Pilot Study of Combined Immune Checkpoint Inhibition in Combination With Ablative Therapies in Subjects With Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) or Biliary Tract Carcinomas (BTC)

To preliminarily evaluate the 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) of combining tremelimumab and durvalumab in patients with advanced HCC (either alone or with cryoablation, TACE or RFA) and in patients with advanced biliary tract carcinoma (BTC) (either alone or with cryoablation or RFA).

Pembrolizumab, a Monoclonal Antibody Against PD-1, in Combination With Capecitabine and Oxaliplatin (CAPOX) in People With Advanced Biliary Tract Carcinoma (BTC)

A Phase 2 Study of Pembrolizumab, a Monoclonal Antibody Against PD-1, in Combination With Capecitabine and Oxaliplatin (CAPOX) in Subjects With Advanced Biliary Tract Carcinoma (BTC)

Phase 1/2 Trial of TC-210 T Cells in Patients With Advanced Mesothelin-Expressing Cancer

TC-210 T cells are a novel cell therapy that consists of autologous genetically engineered T cells expressing a single-domain antibody that recognizes human Mesothelin, fused to the CD3-epsilon subunit which, upon expression, is incorporated into the endogenous T cell receptor (TCR) complex.

A Single Arm Phase II Study of the Combination of DKN-01 and Nivolumab in Previously Treated Patients with Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer (BTC)

Study Name A Single Arm Phase II Study of the Combination of DKN-01 and Nivolumab in ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier (if applicable) NCT04057365 Clinical Trial Category (check all that apply) Beyond First Line Therapy Targeted Therapy Immunotherapy Study Center Institution Name Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center Institution Address 55 Fruit St City Boston State Massachusetts Zip Code…

Phase Ib/II Trial of Nal-Irinotecan and Nivolumab as Second-Line Treatment in Patients With Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer

All patients on this study receive the chemotherapy combination of 5-FU, leucovorin and nanoliposomal irinotecan which has shown efficacy in pancreatic cancer (and is FDA approved). In addition, this trial adds immunotherapy (nivolumab) to this chemotherapy regimen to leverage the synergism of chemo-immunotherapy.

A Phase II Multicenter, Single Arm Study of Oral BGJ398 in Adult Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Cholangiocarcinoma With FGFR2 Gene Fusions or Other FGFR Genetic Alterations Who Failed or Are Intolerant to Platinum-based Chemotherapy

This is a global Phase 2 study for 2nd line treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with an FGFR2 fusion or other FGFR genetic alteration. Patients must have been previously treated with gemcitabine chemotherapy or combination chemotherapy with gemcitabine.

Study of A166 in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Cancers Expressing HER2 Antigen or Having Amplified HER2 Gene

Study for A166 monotherapy in HER2-expressing or amplified patients who progressed on or did not respond to available standard therapies. Patients must have documented HER2 expression or amplification. The patient must have exhausted available standard therapies. Cycles will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

FUZE Clinical Trial

The FUZE Clinical Trial is evaluating an oral investigational medication, called Debio 1347, that may block cancer cell growth. Debio 1347 targets tumors with a specific genetic alteration, called a fusion, of FGFR 1, 2 or 3 (fibroblast growth factor receptor).

Tree Topp

The study drug, varlitinib, is an investigational anti-tumor product, delivered in the form of tablets. The study drug has been administered as a single and combination treatment to patients with metastatic gastric cancer, gastro-esophageal tumors, breast cancer, and biliary tract cancer (BTC). Laboratory studies and animal research suggest that the study drug stops cancer cells from growing by affecting different kinds of proteins in cancer cells. In particular, laboratory studies suggest that the study drug may be effective in targeting and inhibiting (preventing) the pathways of certain proteins in cells called “HER” (human epidermal growth factor receptor). The “HER” protein is important in types of cancer such as cholangiocarcinoma (BTC), gastric cancer, breast cancer, and others. Varlitinib has shown activity in BTC. In this study, patients will receive study drug plus capecitabine, or placebo plus capecitabine. Inclusion allows all forms of BTC and there is no biomarker-based patient selection.

GNS561-CL-I-Q-0211: Phase 1/2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Activity, and Pharmacokinetics of Escalating Doses of GNS561 in Patients with Primary Liver Cancer which includes Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma patients

This is a multicenter, open-label, uncontrolled, repeat-dose phase 1/2a study designed to evaluate the safety profile and to determine the Recommended Dose of GNS561 in patients with advanced advanced primary liver cancer (Hepatocarcinoma, Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma). This study consists of 2 parts: escalation and expansion phase.
