ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07267078

What this study is testing

What is Tuvonralimab/Iparomlimab combination with GEMOX chemotherapy?

Tuvonralimab/Iparomlimab combination with GEMOX chemotherapy is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for biliary tract cancer.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Tuvonralimab/Iparomlimab-based neoadjuvant regimens can improve surgical and pathological outcomes in adults (≥18 years) with resectable or borderline-resectable biliary tract cancer (intrahepatic/extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma or gallbladder cancer), ECOG 0-1, and no prior neoadjuvant therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1.
