E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Hypothesis of the trial: the addition of durvalumab +/- tremelimumab to SIRT improves tumor response rate (ORR) in intrahepatic BTC compared to a historical control of SIRT alone.
Primary objective To assess the efficacy of durvalumab or durvalumab and tremelimumab administered after standard-of-care SIRT in treatment-naïve patients with unresectable intrahepatic biliary tract cancer as measured by the objective response rate (ORR). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Secondary objectives To assess safety of the combined treatment in the two treatment arms. To assess the efficacy of durvalumab or durvalumab and tremelimumab administered after standard-of-care SIRT in treatment-naïve patients with unresectable intrahepatic biliary tract cancer as measured by duration of response (DoR), progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
Exploratory objectives To assess predictive biomarkers for ORR, DoR, PFS and OS in tumor tissue and blood samples.

The following age-specific requirements apply: o Women <50 years of age would be considered post-menopausal if they have been amenorrheic for 12 months or more following cessation of exogenous hormonal treatments and if they have luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone levels in the post-menopausal range for the institution or underwent surgical sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy). o Women ≥50 years of age would be considered post-menopausal if they have been amenorrheic for 12 months or more following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments, had radiation-induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, had chemotherapy-induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, or underwent surgical sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy). 12. The patient is willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study, including hospital visits for treatment and scheduled follow-up visits and examinations. 13. Must have a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks. 14. If patient has concurrent Hepatitis B virus (HBV) or Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, meets the following criteria: - Patients with HBV or HCV infection should be monitored for viral levels during study participation. - Patients with detectable hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or detectable HBV DNA should have HBV DNA < 100 IU/ml and should be managed per local treatment guidelines. Controlled (treated) hepatitis B subjects will be allowed if they started treatment at the time point of enrollment into the study by the latest and treatment is continued during study participation and for ≥ 6 months after end of study treatment. - HCV patients with advanced BTC are mostly not treated for their HCV infection. However, patients treated for HCV are considered suitable for inclusion if antiviral therapy has been completed ≥ 30 days prior to first administration of study drug.

Participation in another clinical study with an investigational product within 21 days prior to the first dose of the study treatment. 3. Prior immunotherapy or use of other investigational agents, including prior treatment with an anti-Programmed Death receptor-1 (PD-1), anti-Programmed Death-1 ligand-1 (PD-L1), anti-PD-L2, or anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated antigen-4 (anti-CTLA-4) antibody, therapeutic cancer vaccines. 4.
