Combination Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy for Biliary Tract Cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs given directly into the liver, combined with two immunotherapy/targeted therapy drugs, for people with advanced biliary tract cancer (cancer of the bile ducts or gallbladder). The goal is to shrink tumors and improve survival in patients who have not received prior chemotherapy.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT07614061RecruitingPhase 1
Cell therapy for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests a new treatment called BTC-Ag-T, which uses your own immune cells enhanced in the lab to fight advanced biliary tract cancer (cancer of the bile ducts or gallbladder). It's designed for patients whose cancer has spread or cannot be surgically removed and who have already received standard chemotherapy plus immunotherapy.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07636798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Chemotherapy and immunotherapy combination for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of three treatments—chemotherapy delivered directly to the liver, plus two immunotherapy drugs—for advanced bile duct cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard treatment and is safe for patients.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for biliary tract cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 127 recruiting biliary tract cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a biliary tract cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a biliary tract cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
