Recruiting studies
- NCT05978609RecruitingPhase 2
Testing cadonilimab plus chemotherapy for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests a new combination therapy for people with advanced bile duct or gallbladder cancer that can't be removed by surgery. It combines a drug called cadonilimab with standard chemotherapy to see if it works better than chemotherapy alone.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT06671418Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Stenting vs drainage for blocked bile ducts from cancer
This study compares two ways to open blocked bile ducts near the liver due to cancer that cannot be removed. One method uses a stent placed through the skin (percutaneous stenting), and the other uses a tube placed through a scope (endoscopic drainage). The goal is to see which approach works better for relieving jaundice and improving quality of life.

New drug before surgery for resectable bile duct cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a “neoadjuvant” (before-surgery) treatment for resectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer in the liver) that has higher risk of coming back. It aims to shrink or control the cancer before the operation, and to see if patients can safely undergo surgery afterward.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05551299RecruitingPhase 4
Non-surgical treatment for bile duct cancer using heat or light
This trial tests whether treating hilar bile duct cancer with either radiofrequency ablation (heat) or photodynamic therapy (light-activated medicine) can help patients when surgery isn’t an option. It aims to treat the tumor directly without planned surgery soon.
AachenAges 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cholangiocarcinoma resectable?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 29 recruiting cholangiocarcinoma resectable 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 resectable 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 resectable 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.
