Recruiting studies
- NCT06720883Recruiting
Robot-assisted surgery for bile duct cancer
This study tests whether robot-assisted surgery is safe and effective for people with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (a type of bile duct cancer). It may be a good fit for patients whose cancer has not spread and who are healthy enough for major surgery.
PadovaAges 18 years+ - NCT05655949RecruitingPhase 2
Y-90 radiation plus immunotherapy and chemo for bile duct cancer
This trial studies whether combining Y-90 liver radiation with an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab) and chemo (gemcitabine and cisplatin) can better control locally advanced or metastatic intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer in the liver). It may help shrink tumors and slow disease growth, depending on how well the treatment works for your cancer type and overall health.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04421820RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
BOLD-100 with chemo for advanced gut cancer
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether BOLD-100, given with the standard chemo combination FOLFOX, can help people with advanced gastrointestinal cancers. It’s especially focused on specific tumor features (including BRAF status) and checks safety, dosing, and early signs of effectiveness.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05451043RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab and tremelimumab plus chemotherapy with propranolol
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding propranolol to durvalumab and tremelimumab along with chemotherapy can help control advanced pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, or bile duct cancer. It aims to shrink tumors and help people live longer or feel better when the cancer can’t be cured with surgery or local treatment.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT01915225Recruiting
Collecting solid tumor samples during cancer biopsy or surgery
This trial collects tissue (samples) from people who are already scheduled for biopsy or surgery for certain solid cancers. It aims to improve future testing and research while checking that taking the sample is safe and doesn’t add extra risk.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2 years+ - NCT07594067RecruitingPhase 1
TCR T cells for KRAS-mutated cancers
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (TCR T cells) designed to target a specific KRAS mutation (G12V) in certain advanced cancers. It may be an option for people with pancreatic, bile duct, colorectal, or lung cancer who have already tried standard treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07146646RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo combo for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs (trifluridine/tipiracil and oxaliplatin) for people with advanced or metastatic bile duct cancer (including gallbladder cancer) who have only had one prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
Cleveland, OhioAges 19 years+ - NCT07557225Recruiting
New PET Scan for Detecting Multiple Cancer Types
This study tests a new type of PET scan (a specialized imaging test) that may better detect certain cancers by looking for a specific marker found on many tumor types. The scan uses a new tracer called 18F-T2 to help doctors see cancer more clearly.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06899152Recruiting
New tests to track liver health during radiation for liver cancer
This study tests new blood tests and MRI scans to see how well your liver works during radiation therapy for liver cancer. It may help doctors better plan treatment and monitor your liver health.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07594964RecruitingPhase 1
Safety Study of XH001 Injection for High-Risk Recurrent Solid Tumors
This early-stage trial tests a new injection called XH001 as an additional treatment after surgery for patients with high-risk cancers that have come back. The goal is to check if it's safe and whether it helps prevent the cancer from returning again.
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT06607276RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant adebrelimab and capecitabine for high-risk bile duct cancer
This trial is for people with bile duct cancer who have had surgery to remove all visible cancer but are at high risk of it coming back. It tests whether adding two medications — adebrelimab (an immunotherapy) and capecitabine (a chemotherapy pill) — after surgery can help prevent the cancer from returning.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07025174RecruitingPhase 2
Sequential anti-angiogenic therapy after immunotherapy for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests whether giving a drug that blocks blood vessel growth (anti-angiogenic therapy) after immunotherapy can help people with advanced bile duct, gallbladder, or cholangiocarcinoma that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this sequence improves outcomes for patients who have not had prior treatment for advanced disease.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT07030140RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy, radiation and chemo for bile duct cancer
This trial tests a new combination of immunotherapy (tislelizumab), radiation, and chemotherapy before surgery for people with bile duct cancer that is hard to remove. The goal is to shrink the tumor enough to allow successful surgery.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT07780838RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for advanced bile duct cancer with an FGFR2 change
This study tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine and cisplatin) with an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab), alternating with a targeted therapy (pemigatinib) for people with advanced biliary tract cancer that has an FGFR2 gene change. The goal is to see if this treatment sequence helps control the cancer.
Columbus, OhioAges 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+ - NCT05714124Recruiting
Testing liver procedures to treat tumors when surgery isn’t possible
This trial studies different ways to place treatments inside the liver to control liver tumors when they can’t be removed with surgery or ablation. It may help certain people by improving how well the tumor is treated while keeping liver function safer.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07223307RecruitingPhase 2
MRI-guided radiation for liver cancers
This trial tests a precise MRI-guided radiation treatment for liver cancers, including liver cancer, bile duct cancer, or cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to target tumors more accurately while protecting healthy tissue.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cholangiocarcinoma cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 101 recruiting cholangiocarcinoma 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 cholangiocarcinoma 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 cholangiocarcinoma 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.
