Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • The subjects voluntarily participate in the study and agree to sign the informed consent form, are compliant, and cooperate with follow-up.
  • They are over 18 years of age and gender is not restricted when signing the informed consent form.
  • They have histologically confirmed unresectable advanced or metastatic biliary tract adenocarcinoma, including intrahepatic or extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder cancer.
  • Patients who are diagnosed with unresectable or metastatic disease and have not received prior treatment are eligible for inclusion.
  • Patients who have undergone curative surgery and experienced disease recurrence after more than 6 months; or patients who have completed adjuvant therapy (chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy) and have been disease-free for more than 6 months after completing adjuvant therapy are eligible for inclusion.
  • They have at least one measurable lesion (as defined by RECIST 1.1, the measurable lesion is a spiral CT scan long diameter ≥10mm or lymph node short diameter ≥15mm).
Show all 14Show fewer
  • Their ECOG score is 0-1 in the week prior to enrollment.
  • Based on the investigator's assessment, their estimated survival time is ≥3 months.
  • Patients with active hepatitis B or C require relevant antiviral treatment, with HBV-DNA <2000 IU/ml (<104 copies/ml), and have received at least 14 days of antiviral treatment before participating in the study. HCV RNA-positive patients must follow local standard treatment guidelines for antiviral therapy, and their liver function is within CTCAE Grade 1 elevation.
  • Their hematological and organ functions are adequate, based on laboratory test results obtained within 14 days before the start of the study (unless otherwise specified):
  • Hematology: (no blood transfusion, no G-CSF, no drug correction within 14 days prior to screening) Hb ≥90 g/L; neutrophil count ≥1.5×109/L; PLT≥100×109/L.
  • Biochemistry: (no albumin transfusion within 14 days) Appropriate liver function: ALT and AST ≤2.5×ULN; for patients with liver metastases, ALT and AST ≤5 × ULN. Serum bilirubin ≤2.0×ULN; these conditions do not apply to patients with confirmed Gilbert's syndrome. Any clinically significant biliary obstruction should be resolved before randomization. Appropriate renal function: creatinine ≤1.5×ULN, or creatinine clearance rate (CCr) >50mL/min (using the standard Cockcroft-Gault formula): Female: CrCl = ((140 - age) x weight (kg) x 0.85) / 72 x serum creatinine (mg/ dL) Male: CrCl = ((140 - age) x weight (kg) x 1.00) / 72 x serum creatinine (mg/ dL)
  • Women of childbearing potential: agree to abstain from sexual intercourse or use contraceptive methods with a failure rate of less than 1% during the treatment period and for at least 6 months after the last dose. If a female patient has menstruation and has not reached menopause (continuous absence of menstruation for ≥12 months without other reasons), and has not undergone sterilization surgery (removal of ovaries and/or uterus), she is considered to be of childbearing potential. Examples of contraceptive methods with a failure rate of less than 1% include bilateral tubal ligation, male sterilization, hormone-based contraceptives that inhibit ovulation, hormone-releasing intrauterine devices, and copper intrauterine devices. The reliability of sexual restraint should be evaluated relative to the duration of the clinical trial and the patient's preferred lifestyle and daily routine. Periodic abstinence (such as calendar day, ovulation period, symptom temperature, or post-ovulation method) and ejaculation outside the vagina are unacceptable contraceptive methods.
  • Male: agree to abstain from sexual intercourse or use contraceptive measures, agree not to donate sperm, as defined below: When the female partner is of childbearing potential, male patients must abstain during the treatment period and for 6 months after the last dose, or use a condom plus other contraceptive methods to achieve a failure rate of less than 1%. Male patients must also agree not to donate sperm during the same period. When the female partner is already pregnant, male patients must abstain or use a condom to prevent fetal exposure to the study during the treatment period and for 6 months after the last dose. The reliability of sexual restraint should be evaluated relative to the duration of the clinical trial and the patient's preferred lifestyle and daily routine. Periodic abstinence (such as calendar day, ovulation period, symptom temperature, or post-ovulation method) and ejaculation outside the vagina are unacceptable contraceptive methods.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    Objective response rate

    Measured: Baseline up to approximately 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Disease control rate (DCR)

    DCR refers to the proportion of patients whose tumor volume control (shrinkage or enlargement) reaches a predetermined value and can maintain the minimum required duration. According to the RECIST criteria (version 1.1), during the treatment period or within 30 days after the discontinuation of the investigational drug, it is the sum of the percentage of subjects who achieve complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and stable disease (SD)

    Measured: Baseline up to approximately 6 months

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    It refers to the time from the first administration of the regimen to the first occurrence of disease progression or death due to any cause in the subjects.

    Measured: Baseline up to approximately 12 months

  3. Overall survival

    The time from randomization to death due to any cause in the subjects

    Measured: Baseline up to approximately 12 months

  4. Duration of response

    It refers to the time from the first report of objective tumor partial or complete response (based on the earlier occurrence) to the first occurrence of disease progression or death in the subjects

    Measured: Baseline up to approximately 12 months

  5. Clinical benefit rate

    The ratio of subjects who achieve complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) or maintain stable disease (SD) .

    Measured: Baseline up to approximately 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Toripalimab, Lenvatinib and Gemox Chemotherapy(Gemox or GC) in people with Biliary Tract Neoplasms Immunotherapy, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 19 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Haitao Zhao, PhD (+86-1069156042, zhaoht@pumch.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate (ORR) (time frame: Baseline up to approximately 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Apr 2024.
