Trastuzumab, serplulimab, and chemo for advanced bile duct or bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of trastuzumab (a HER2-targeted drug), serplulimab (an immunotherapy), and chemotherapy for people with advanced bile duct or bladder cancer that is HER2-positive and has not responded to prior treatments. The goal is to see if this mix can shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–85 - NCT07530445RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemotherapy for advanced biliary tract cancer
This study tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab) plus chemotherapy and a targeted drug (lenvatinib) for biliary tract cancer that has spread or cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to slow cancer growth in patients whose cancer has progressed after one prior treatment.
GuangzhouAges 18–70 - 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.
