Pembrolizumab in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin compared with gemcitabine and cisplatin alone for patients with advanced biliarytract cancer (KEYNOTE-966) : a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial

Robin Kate Kelley et al.

Summary: This study examined the efficacy of adding the immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab to the standard chemotherapy regimen for advanced biliary tract cancer. The results showed that the combination treatment significantly improved overall survival compared to chemotherapy alone.

Gemcitabine and cisplatin plus durvalumab with or without tremelimumab in chemotherapy-naive patients with advanced biliary tract cancer: an open-label, single-centre, phase 2 study

Do-Youn Oh et al.

Summary: In patients with advanced biliary tract cancer, gemcitabine and cisplatin plus immunotherapy showed promising efficacy and acceptable safety, with an objective response rate of 66%. The most common adverse events were hematological, with no unexpected safety events observed.

The immune microenvironment features and response to immunotherapy in EBV-associated lymphoepithelioma-like cholangiocarcinoma

Nai-Jung Chiang et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated lymphoepithelioma-like cholangiocarcinoma (EBV-LELCC) and its correlation with clinical outcomes. The results showed that increased immune cell infiltration and changes in immune cell types in TIME were associated with better survival. Furthermore, patients with EBV-LELCC had higher sensitivity to anti-PD-1 treatment.

Precision Medicine in Biliary Tract Cancer

Aaron J. Scott et al.

Summary: Precision medicine plays a crucial role in the treatment of biliary tract cancers. Targeted therapies have changed the therapeutic landscape for advanced BTC, and up to 40% of patients have potentially targetable molecular abnormalities. Combinational treatment strategies like immune checkpoint inhibition plus chemotherapy hold promise for improving outcomes in patients who cannot be targeted.

Immunotherapies in clinical development for biliary tract cancer

Arndt Vogel et al.

Summary: Currently, immune oncology has shown some positive signals in unselected BTC populations, but should not be considered as a preferred systemic treatment. In the coming years, understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying resistance to checkpoint inhibition and identifying positive predictive biomarkers will be crucial for successful integration of IO into treatment concepts for BTC patients.
