Sintilimab Plus NALIRIFOX or Gemcitabine-Cisplatin as First-Line Treatment for Metastatic Biliary Tract Cancer
Sponsor: The Affiliated Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School
Summary
This is a randomized, noncomparative, open-label, exploratory clinical study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab in combination with NALIRIFOX or gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GP) as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic biliary tract cancer (BTC) who have not received prior systemic anticancer therapy for metastatic disease. Approximately 54 eligible participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to two treatment groups. Participants in Group A will receive sintilimab in combination with NALIRIFOX, consisting of liposomal irinotecan (II), 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin, and oxaliplatin. Participants in Group B will receive sintilimab in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Secondary endpoints include disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety.

Interventions
Sintilimab
Sintilimab 200 mg is administered by intravenous infusion on Day 1 every 3 weeks (Q3W) during combination treatment. Sintilimab is continued during maintenance treatment in participants without disease progression, according to the assigned treatment arm.
Irinotecan Hydrochloride Liposome Injection (II)
Irinotecan hydrochloride liposome injection (II) 50 mg/m² is administered by intravenous infusion over 90 minutes (±30 minutes), or according to institutional clinical practice, on Day 1 every 2 weeks (Q2W). It is administered as part of the NALIRIFOX regimen and is continued during maintenance treatment in eligible participants without disease progression.
Oxaliplatin
Oxaliplatin 60 mg/m² is administered by intravenous infusion over 2 hours, or according to institutional clinical practice, on Day 1 every 2 weeks (Q2W) as part of the NALIRIFOX combination treatment. Oxaliplatin is not included in the maintenance regimen.
Leucovorin
Leucovorin 200 mg/m² is administered by intravenous infusion over 1 hour, or according to institutional clinical practice, on Day 1 every 2 weeks (Q2W) as part of the NALIRIFOX regimen. Leucovorin is continued during maintenance treatment in eligible participants without disease progression.
Fluorouracil
Fluorouracil 2000 mg/m² is administered as a continuous intravenous infusion over 46 to 48 hours, or according to institutional clinical practice, starting on Day 1 every 2 weeks (Q2W) as part of the NALIRIFOX regimen. Fluorouracil is continued during maintenance treatment in eligible participants without disease progression.
gemcitabine
Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m² is administered by intravenous infusion over 30 minutes on Days 1 and 8 of each 3-week cycle (Q3W). It is administered with cisplatin and sintilimab during combination treatment and is continued with sintilimab during maintenance treatment in eligible participants without disease progression.
Cisplatin
Cisplatin 25 mg/m² is administered by intravenous infusion on Days 1 and 8 of each 3-week cycle (Q3W) as part of the gemcitabine, cisplatin, and sintilimab combination regimen. Cisplatin is not included in the maintenance regimen.
