Conditions
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether QL1706(Iparomlimab/Tuvonralimab) in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin (GC) is effective and safe as a first-line treatment for patients with advanced biliary tract cancer whose tumors are PD-L1 positive (CPS ≥ 1). This is a multicenter, single-arm, phase II clinical study. A total of 38 eligible patients will be enrolled . The main questions it aims to answer are: what proportion of patients achieve objective response (tumor shrinkage) after receiving QL1706 plus GC, as measured by the objective response rate (ORR)? How long do the treatment benefits last, in terms of disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DOR), time to response (TTR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS)? What is the safety profile of QL1706 combined with GC, including the frequency and severity of adverse events, treatment-related adverse events, serious adverse events, and immune-related adverse events? Participants will receive QL1706 (5 mg/kg, intravenous infusion) once every 3 weeks in combination with gemcitabine (1000 mg/m² on days 1 and 8) and cisplatin (25 mg/m² on days 1 and 8) for up to 8 cycles (each cycle is 3 weeks), and after completing 8 cycles of combination therapy, they will continue QL1706 alone as maintenance therapy (5 mg/kg once every 3 weeks) until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, death, or completion of 2 years of treatment, whichever occurs first. Participants will undergo tumor imaging assessments (using CT or MRI) every 9 weeks (±7 days) during the treatment period, with responses evaluated . Participants will also have regular blood tests, physical examinations, electrocardiograms, and other safety assessments at each treatment cycle, and will provide tumor tissue and blood samples before treatment and at various time points during the study for biomarker analyses to explore correlations with treatment response. Finally, participants will be followed for adverse events for 30 days after the last dose, for serious adverse events for 90 days after the last dose, and for survival status every 90 days (±14 days) after the end of treatment until death, study completion, or loss to follow-up. The study is expected to provide valuable evidence on whether the addition of QL1706 to standard GC chemotherapy offers a new treatment option for patients with PD-L1-positive advanced biliary tract cancer, and to identify potential biomarkers that may help predict which patients are most likely to benefit from this combination therapy.

Interventions
QL1706 is a bifunctional combination antibody composed of a PD-1 monoclonal antibody (IgG4 isotype, no ADCC effect) and a CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody (IgG1 isotype, with ADCC effect, engineered with R255K mutation to shorten half-life and reduce toxicity). It is administered at 5 mg/kg via intravenous infusion once every 3 weeks.
Gemcitabine is a nucleoside analog antimetabolite antineoplastic agent, and cisplatin is a platinum-based alkylating agent. The combination is administered as follows: gemcitabine 1000 mg/m² and cisplatin 25 mg/m² via intravenous infusion on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle, for up to 8 cycles.
