Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.

Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial is testing whether a combination of two drugs—sacituzumab tirumotecan and envafolimab—can shrink advanced biliary tract cancers (cancers of the bile ducts or gallbladder) that have grown despite initial treatment. The study enrolls up to 28 adults whose tumors carry a protein called TROP2. Participants receive the drugs intravenously and under the skin every two weeks for three cycles, with further treatment decided by their doctor. The main goal is to see how many patients' tumors shrink significantly.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
sacituzumab tirumotecan combined with envafolimab
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for people with advanced biliary tract cancers who have run out of standard therapies.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 28 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The combination may cause significant side effects, and the cancer may still progress.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 75 years at the time of signing the informed consent form, regardless of gender; * Histologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable locally advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancers (including intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and gallbladder cancer); * Have received first-line PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor combined with chemotherapy and have experienced disease progression during or after systemic therapy; * TROP2 immunohistochemistry score of 2+ or 3+; * At least one measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1; * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 within 7 days prior to dosing; * Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks; * Adequate organ and bone marrow function (without blood transfusion, recombinant human thrombopoietin, or colony-stimulating factor treatment within 2 weeks prior to dosing), defined as follows: 1. Hematology: absolute neutrophil count (NEUT#) ≥ 1.5 × 10⁹/L; platelet count (PLT) ≥ 100 × 10⁹/L; hemoglobin ≥ 90 g/L; 2. Hepatic function: aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN; for subjects with baseline liver metastases, ALT and AST ≤ 5 × ULN; albumin ≥ 30 g/L; total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 × ULN; 3. Renal function: creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min (calculated using the standard Cockcroft-Gault formula); 4. Coagulation function: international normalized ratio (INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and prothrombin time (PT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN; * Female subjects of childbearing potential and male subjects with partners of childbearing potential must agree to use effective medical contraceptive measures from the signing of the informed consent form through 6 months after the last dose ; * Subjects voluntarily participate in this study, sign the informed consent form, and are able to comply with protocol-specified visits and related procedures. Exclusion Criteria: * Prior receipt of any of the following treatments (including in the adjuvant/neoadjuvant setting): 1. TROP2-targeted therapy; 2. Any drug targeting topoisomerase I, including antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) therapy; * Use of strong inhibitors or inducers of cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme (CYP3A4) within 2 weeks prior to the first dose or during the study period (use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers is not permitted in this study; representative drugs are listed in Appendix 7); all subjects must avoid concomitant use of any known CYP3A4-inducing drugs, herbal supplements, and/or consumption of such foods; * Documented history of severe dry eye syndrome, severe meibomian gland disease and/or blepharitis, or corneal disease that impairs/delays corneal healing; * History of or current central nervous system (CNS) metastases; * Other malignancy within 3 years prior to dosing (except for tumors cured by local therapy, such as basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, etc.); * Presence of any of the following cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases or risk factors: 1.
