Phase 2 Trial of Adjuvant Adebrelimab Combined With Capecitabine in High-Risk Resected Cholangiocarcinoma: ACHIEVE

Biliary tract malignancies (BTC) are malignant tumors that originate from the epithelium of the bile ducts. Currently, the optimal treatment for biliary tract malignancies is radical surgical resection. In recent years, with the advancement of imaging technology and surgical techniques, there has been certain progress in the diagnosis and treatment of biliary tract malignancies. However, the surgical resection rate and long-term survival rate after surgery are still not satisfactory, and the high postoperative recurrence rate is an important factor affecting the long-term survival of patients. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore new postoperative adjuvant treatment plans to reduce postoperative tumor recurrence, which is of great significance for extending the survival of patients with biliary tract malignancies. In the NCCN and CSCO guidelines, capecitabine is listed as a category I recommendation for adjuvant treatment of biliary tract malignancies (BTC). However, in clinical practice, the use of capecitabine or tegafur for postoperative patients with cholangiocarcinoma at high risk of recurrence still has a high recurrence rate. Therefore, there is still a huge unmet need in the clinical adjuvant treatment after surgery for biliary tract malignancies. Based on the above background, we plan to carry out a randomized, open, and comparative study to observe the efficacy and safety of Adebrelimab combined with capecitabine for adjuvant treatment in patients with biliary tract malignancies after surgery, and to explore treatment methods to improve the efficacy of postoperative adjuvant treatment for cholangiocarcinoma.
