We have identified IDH1 mutations as mediating the exclusion of immune cells in tumors. Ivosidenib is an IDH1 inhibitor. We hypothesize that blocking IDH1 will enhance cancer immunotherapy (nivolumab) in settings where immunotherapy normally doesn’t work. Approximately 10-15% of patients with cholangiocarcinomas have tumors with IDH1 mutations.

Patients must have HER2, advanced (unresectable) or metastatic biliary tract cancer which has progressed following standard of care therapy.
Read MoreThis is a Phase 1 clinical trial using modified macrophages obtained via apheresis, given intravenously without preparative chemotherapy, for patients with advanced HER2 over expressing solid tumors including cholangiocarcinoma.
Read MoreA combination of PARP inhibitor (daily pill) + immunotherapy (30 min infusion every 2 weeks) in patients with advanced biliary cancer who have not progressed after 4-6 months of first-line chemotherapy (platinum-based).
Read MoreThis is a study of pembrolizumab plus gemcitabine/cisplatin vs. placebo plus gemcitabine/cisplatin as first-line therapy in people with advanced and/or unresectable BTC.
Read MoreTo 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).

Read MoreThis is a Phase III Study of Durvalumab (Immunotherapy) in Combination With Gemcitabine Plus Cisplatin Versus Placebo in Combination With Gemcitabine Plus Cisplatin for Patients With First-Line Advanced Biliary Tract Cancers. Chemotherapy (Gemcitabine plus Cisplatin) is the standard of care for advanced biliary tract cancer.
Read MoreAll 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.
