Recruiting PHASE4 Advanced Biliary Tract Carcinoma

Compares treatment options for Advanced Biliary Tract Carcinoma

Official title Morning Versus Afternoon Administration of Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors, The Knight SHIFT Study

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07405086

What this study is testing

What is Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor?

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for advanced biliary tract carcinoma.

Also referred to as ICI.

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
This phase IV trial is evaluating whether morning versus afternoon administration of standard of care immunotherapy impacts its effectiveness in treating patients with solid tumors that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
