Adebrelimab and a TKI in Combination With GEMOX in First-line Treatment of Advanced Biliary Tract Cancers (BTC)

Summary

Patients with advanced biliary tract malignant tumors who had not received systematic treatment before and could not be cured were selected as the subjects of the study. The primary endpoint of the study was investigator-assessed 6-month progression-free survival (6-month PFS%) based on the RECIST v1.1 criteria, and 43 subjects were planned to be enrolled. Patients eligible for enrollment will receive Adebrelimab and a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) in combination with gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GEMOX).
