Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety of durvalumab combined with gemcitabine-based chemotherapy for participants with advanced BTC who have not previously received systemic therapy for advanced or metastatic BTC with WHO/ECOG PS of 0 to 2.

Eligible participants will received durvalumab in combination with gemcitabine-based chemotherapy(Gemcitabine+Oxalipatin; Gemcitabine+S1, Gemcitabine+Cisplatin) by investigator's choice.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Participant must be ≥ 18 years at the time of screening.
2. Histologically confirmed, unresectable advanced or metastatic BTC including cholangiocarcinoma (intrahepatic or extrahepatic), gallbladder carcinoma.
3. Participants with previously untreated disease are eligible if presented with unresectable or metastatic BTC at initial diagnosis.
4. Prior curative intent treatment (surgery and, if given in the adjuvant setting, chemotherapy and/or radiation) is permitted, with recurrent disease \>6 months. This includes participants with residual disease after surgery, who received chemotherapy, chemoembolization, or radiotherapy.
5. A WHO/ECOG PS of 0 to 2.
6. At least one lesion that qualifies as a RECIST 1.1 TL at baseline.
7. Participants with HBV infection (as characterised by positive HBsAg and/or anti-HBcAb with detectable HBV DNA, as per local laboratory standards) must be treated with antiviral therapy, as per institutional practice, to ensure adequate viral suppression (as per local laboratory standards) prior to enrolment. Participants must remain on antiviral therapy for the study duration and for 6 months after the last dose of study intervention. Participants who test positive for anti-HBc with undetectable HBV DNA (as per local laboratory standards) do not require antiviral therapy prior to enrolment. These participants will be tested at every cycle to monitor HBV DNA levels and initiate antiviral therapy if HBV DNA is detected (as per local laboratory standards). HBV DNA detectable participants must initiate and remain on antiviral therapy for the study duration and for 6 months after the last dose of study intervention.
8. Adequate organ and marrow function, as defined below.

* Haemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL
* Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 × 109/L
* Platelet count ≥ 100 × 109/L
* Serum bilirubin ≤ 2.0 × ULN; this will not apply to participants with confirmed Gilbert's syndrome. Any clinically significant biliary obstruction should be resolved before enrolment.
* ALT and AST ≤ 2.5 × ULN. For participants with hepatic metastases, ALT and AST ≤ 5 × ULN.
* Calculated creatinine clearance \> 50 mL/minute as determined by Cockcroft-Gault (using actual body weight) or 24-hour urine creatinine clearance. For chemotherapy regimens including carboplatin, oxaliplatin, or gemcitabine as monotherapy, the recommended threshold for calculated creatinine clearance is \> 40 mL/minute as determined by Cockcroft-Gault (using actual body weight) or 24-hour urine creatinine clearance.
9. Must have a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.
10. Body weight of \> 30 kg.
11. Male or female.
12. Negative pregnancy test (serum) for women of childbearing potential.
13. Female participants must be one year post-menopausal (amenorrhoeic for 12 months without an alternative medical cause), surgically sterile, or using one highly effective form of birth control (a highly effective method of contraception is defined as one that can achieve a failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly). Women of childbearing potential must agree to use one highly effective method of birth control (see Appendix H for a complete list of highly effective birth control methods). They should have been stable on their chosen method of birth control from the time of screening throughout the total duration of the study and the drug washout period (90 days after the last dose of study intervention with durvalumab or 180 days after the last dose of durvalumab and gemcitabine-based therapy).

\- Non-sterilised male partners of a woman of childbearing potential must use a male condom plus spermicide (condom alone in countries where spermicides are not approved) throughout this period. Cessation of birth control after this point should be discussed with a responsible physician. Periodic abstinence, as well as the rhythm and withdrawal methods are not acceptable methods of birth control.
14. Male participants who intend to be sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential must be surgically sterile or using an acceptable method of contraception (see Appendix H) from the time of screening throughout the total duration of the study and the drug washout period (90 days after the last dose of study intervention with durvalumab or 180 days after the last dose of durvalumab and gemcitabine-based therapy) to prevent pregnancy in a partner. Male participants must not donate or bank sperm during this same time period.

\- Female partners (of childbearing potential) of male participants must also use a highly effective method of contraception throughout this period.
15. Participant is capable of giving signed informed consent as described in Appendix A, Section A3 which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this protocol.
16. Written informed consent from the participant has been obtained prior to any study-related procedures.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Ampullary carcinoma.
2. As judged by the investigator, any evidence of diseases (such as severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases, including uncontrolled hypertension, active bleeding diseases, active infection, active ILD/pneumonitis, serious chronic gastrointestinal conditions associated with diarrhoea, psychiatric illness/social situations), history of allogenic organ transplant, which, in the investigator's opinion, makes it undesirable for the participant to participate in the study or that would jeopardise compliance with the protocol.
3.

9. Persistent toxicities (CTCAE Grade \> 2) caused by previous anticancer therapy; alopecia and vitiligo are excluded toxicities.

* Participants with Grade ≥ 2 neuropathy will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis after consultation with the study physician.
* Participants with irreversible toxicity not reasonably expected to be exacerbated by treatment with durvalumab may be included only after consultation with the study physician.
10. History of previous or current, brain metastases or spinal cord compression (including asymptomatic and adequately treated disease). Participants with suspected brain metastases at screening should have an MRI (preferred) or CT scan, each preferably with IV contrast of the brain prior to study entry.
11. Known allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the study intervention or any of the study intervention excipients.
12. Any concurrent chemotherapy, other than the one allowed in the study, IP, biologic, or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment. Concurrent use of hormonal therapy for non-cancer-related conditions (eg, hormone replacement therapy) is acceptable.

19. Participation in another clinical study with a study intervention administered in the last 3 months.
20. Concurrent enrolment in another clinical study, unless it is an observational (non-interventional) clinical study, or during the follow-up period of an interventional study.
