Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06274879RecruitingPhase 2
Radiofrequency ablation for bile duct cancer
This trial tests a procedure that uses heat (radiofrequency ablation) to treat bile duct cancer that can't be removed by surgery. If you have this type of cancer and are starting standard treatment, this study wants to see if adding this heat treatment is safe and might help.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT06230471RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib or chemo for advanced bile duct cancer
This study tests whether adding another drug (lenvatinib or chemotherapy) to the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab works better than pembrolizumab alone for advanced bile duct or gallbladder cancer that has not been treated before. It aims to find a more effective first treatment option.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06219941RecruitingPhase 2
Studying AZD0901 for Claudin18.2-positive advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AZD0901 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific protein on their surface. It aims to see if the drug can shrink or slow the growth of these tumors.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06037980RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Chemotherapy before surgery for high-risk bile duct cancer
This trial tests whether receiving chemotherapy (cisplatin, gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel) before surgery can improve outcomes for people with high-risk bile duct or gallbladder cancer. It compares this approach to going straight to surgery.
AnconaAges 18–75 - 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for biliary tract cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 137 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.
