Summary

The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate whether the inclusion of radiotherapy, in addition to standard-of-care systemic therapy, could improve the treatment effectiveness of patients with oligometastatic/locally advanced unresectable biliary tract cancer. The primary question that the trial aims to address is: does the addition of consolidative radiotherapy to standard-of-care systemic therapy for treating oligometastatic/locally advanced unresectable biliary tract cancer, result in a prolonged progression-free survival (PFS)?

Researchers will assess whether radiotherapy can enhance PFS by comparing the survival time of patients with oligometastatic/locally advanced unresectable biliary tract cancer who receive standard-of-care systemic therapy alone versus those who receive standard-of-care systemic therapy along with consolidative radiotherapy.

Participants in this trial will:

Either receive or not receive consolidative radiotherapy following six cycles of standard-of-care systemic therapy.

Conditions

  • Biliary Tract Cancer

Interventions

RADIATION

Consolidative radiotherapy

Consolidative radiotherapy: total dose and number of fractions will depend on the site of disease. Treatment will be given daily, or every other day, over 1 -3 weeks. Physicians should try to give the highest BED whenever possible while respecting normal tissue tolerance. All lesions are recommended to receive a biologically effective dose (BED) of 60 Gy or higher (BED10≥70), assuming α/β ratio of 10 and using the linear-quadratic model: BED = nd x \[1 + d/(α/β)\] where n is number of fractions and d is dose per fraction. Sometimes BED ≥80 Gy is preferred, with lower doses ≥50 Gy allowed at the discretion of the treating physician for concerns about normal tissue toxicity.

DRUG

Standard-of-care systemic therapy: Gemcitabine + cisplatin/oxaliplatin + Durvalumab/Pembrolizumab/Sintilimab/Toripalimab

Standard-of-care systemic therapy as decided by the treating medical oncologist: Gemcitabine + cisplatin/oxaliplatin + Durvalumab/Pembrolizumab/Sintilimab/Toripalimab
