Summary

This phase 2 trial is testing whether adding an experimental immunotherapy drug called ZG005 to standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine and cisplatin) can help people with advanced gallbladder cancer. About 60 participants will receive either the combination or standard treatment. The study is currently recruiting and will measure how well tumors respond and what side effects occur.
