Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT07221253RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Rilvegostomig or Durvalumab plus chemo for biliary tract cancer
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs (rilvegostomig or durvalumab) combined with standard chemotherapy for people with bile duct or gallbladder cancer that has spread or cannot be removed. It aims to see if these combinations work better than chemo alone.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06467357RecruitingPhase 3
A study of T-DXd and rilvegostomig for HER2-positive bile duct cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (T-DXd and rilvegostomig) for people with advanced bile duct cancer that has not been treated before. The cancer must have high levels of a protein called HER2. This study compares the new drugs to standard treatments.
Towson, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT04645160RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tivozanib for bile duct and gallbladder cancers after chemotherapy
This Phase 1/2 trial tests tivozanib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) in people with bile duct or gallbladder cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and has already been treated with first-line chemotherapy. The study looks at how well the drug works and how safe it is in this setting.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05123482RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early study of AZD8205 for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests how safe and effective AZD8205 is for people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that have come back or spread after standard treatments. It may help by finding the right dose and whether AZD8205 works alone or with another treatment in different cancer types.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05849480RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of CD40 treatment with CAPOX and Keytruda for bile duct cancer
This trial studies a new immune “switch” treatment called CDX-1140 combined with standard chemo (CAPOX) and Keytruda, for biliary tract cancer that can’t be cured with surgery or transplant. It’s designed for people whose cancer has progressed after first-line treatment, with the goal of improving cancer control and outcomes.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06001658RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus immunotherapy before and after surgery for bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (gemcitabine and cisplatin) and an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) given before and after surgery for people with bile duct or gallbladder cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if this approach helps prevent the cancer from coming back.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06546969RecruitingPhase 1
Combination therapy for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and heat therapy (hyperthermia) with a special radiation technique for advanced bile duct or gallbladder cancer that hasn't been treated before. It aims to see if this combination can help shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21 years+ - NCT06564623RecruitingPhase 1
Peptide vaccine plus immunotherapy for biliary tract cancer
This trial tests a personalized peptide vaccine combined with two immunotherapy drugs (durvalumab and tremelimumab) for patients with biliary tract cancer whose tumors have specific genetic changes. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05733598RecruitingPhase 2
RP2 plus standard treatment for advanced liver or bile cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies whether RP2, added to standard second-line treatment, can improve outcomes for people with advanced liver cancer or bile duct/gallbladder cancer. It may help by training the immune system to better attack the cancer after the cancer has already grown despite prior treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT01950572Recruiting
Biopsy study to learn about mesothelioma and related cancers
This study collects tissue samples (biopsies) and health information to better understand malignant mesothelioma and certain related solid tumors that may produce a protein called mesothelin. It may help future research and treatments, and you can only join if your diagnosis is confirmed and it’s safe for you to have the tissue taken.

What taking part in a biliary tract cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there biliary tract cancer clinical trials in Maryland?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 10 recruiting biliary tract cancer studies with a site in Maryland, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a biliary tract cancer study in Maryland?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a biliary tract cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
