Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well gemcitabine, cisplatin, nab-paclitaxel and durvalumab work before surgery in treating participants with Biliary Tract Cancer. The international multicenter phase III clinical study TOPAZ-1 has confirmed that durvalumab combined with gemcitabine and cisplatin can bring survival benefits to advanced BTC. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as nab-paclitaxel, cisplatin, and gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving combination chemotherapy and Durvalumab before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Gemcitabine, cisplatin, nab-paclitaxel, durvalumab

Participants receive nab-paclitaxel over 30 minutes, cisplatin over 60 minutes, and gemcitabine over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8; durvalumab over 60 minutes on days 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 3 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants with stable disease (SD), partial response (PR), or complete response (CR) then undergo standard of care hepatectomy with portal lymphadenectomy.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Rate of completion of all preoperative and operative therapy [Up to 9 weeks after study start]

      Completion of all therapy rate will be recorded.

    2. Incidence of adverse events [Up to 1 years after study start]

      Will be monitored using method of Thall, Simon and Estey, and will be tabulated by the maximum reported Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Response rate defined as the percentage of patients who will have complete response (CR), partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) after the neoadjuvant therapy [Up to 9 weeks after study start]

      Will be evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (RECIST).

    2. Rate of R0 resection [Up to 9 weeks after study start]

      R0 resection is defined as no tumor remains at the cutting edge and no tumor cells remain at the cutting edge under the microscope

    3. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) [Up to 1 years after study start]

      RFS is defined as the time between the date of surgery and the date of disease recurrence or death, whichever occurred first. If a patient did not have an event (i.e. disease recurrence or death) by the time of final analysis, patient will be censored at the last disease evaluation time.

    4. Overall survival (OS) [Up to 1 years after study start]

      OS is defined as the time from date of neoadjuvant treatment start to the date of death from any cause or to the date of last follow-up if patients are alive. If a patient is alive by the time of final analysis, the patient will be censored at the last follow-up date.
