Find new blood or tumor markers for bile duct and gallbladder cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks for new ways to measure cancer-related “biomarkers” (signals in blood or tumor samples) in people with bile duct cancer or gallbladder cancer. The goal is to improve how these cancers are identified and tracked, which could help doctors make better treatment decisions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with bile duct cancer or gallbladder cancer using pathology (tissue/cell testing)
- A doctor has referred you to get treatment for bile duct cancer or gallbladder cancer
- You are willing to sign informed consent to join the study

This study is collecting information and blood samples from people with biliary tract cancer to understand how certain markers and quality-of-life measures relate to treatment outcomes. The findings may help improve future care and support.
This study tracks how bile duct and liver cancers change during treatment, to help doctors find the best therapies for patients. It is for people who are newly diagnosed or starting a new treatment.
This study looks at lab markers (including genetic tests) to predict how people with bile duct cancer respond to treatment. Your answers and samples may help doctors personalize care for bile duct cancer in the future.
This trial uses a simple blood test to track how well bile duct cancer responds to treatment and to predict outcomes. It may help doctors make better decisions about surgery and other therapies.
This study is testing a new blood test to help find cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer) earlier and more easily. If you are scheduled for surgery for this cancer, this test may help confirm the diagnosis without more invasive procedures.
This study looks at tissue samples from people with bile duct, liver, or pancreas problems to develop better ways to detect cancers in these areas. If you are scheduled for a biopsy, scan, or surgery for a suspected growth in your liver, pancreas, or bile duct, you may be able to help.
