Investigating Precision Medicine in the Adjuvant Setting in Biliary Tract Cancer

Investigating Precision Medicine in the Adjuvant Setting: a Phase 3 Clinical Trial in Biliary Tract Cancer

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 4 Aug 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The objective of SAFIR-IMPACT BTC is to see whether, combining or replacing the standard adjuvant chemotherapy with a targeted therapy matched to the person's cancer, is better than the standard treatment alone in delaying or preventing the return of the cancer. Three different targeted therapies will be evaluated, each of which recognises a different type of abnormality in cancer cells: * Ivosidenib - a drug which acts on a specific abnormality in a protein called IDH1. * Futibatinib - a drug which acts on abnormalities in a protein called FGFR2 * Zanidatamab - a drug which acts on cancers that produce more than the usual quantity of a protein called HER2. The trial is composed of two phases: (i) An initial screening phase to identify a suitable patient population, during which a sample of the patient's tumour will be tested to see if it has one of the target abnormalities being studied (ii) a randomised comparative phase (for selected patients only) which consists of comparing two treatment options: some patients will receive the targeted therapy specific to the abnormality identified in their tumour, while others will receive the standard treatment. Patients will be assigned to one treatment or the other by a random draw: they will have a 2 in 3 chance of receiving the targeted therapy. Randomised participants will: * Take their assigned treatment for 6 months * Visit the clinic once every 3 weeks for checkups and tests * Keep a diary of their symptoms and the treatment they take at home Follow-up information will be collected for all participants until the end of the trial.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Contraindication to standard adjuvant therapy
  • Prior anticancer therapy in the neoadjuvant or adjuvant setting.
  • Planned post-operative radiation therapy
  • Prior treatment with any of the MTT under investigation in the trial
  • Signed a written informed consent form prior to any trial specific procedures (Consent #2)
  • Surgery performed at least four weeks prior to randomisation with adequate wound healing (in the Investigator's opinion) to allow adjuvant therapy to be initiated
  • No measurable disease, as assessed by the investigator: normal post-operative thoracic, abdominal and pelvic CT scan or normal MRI of abdomen and pelvis + normal chest CT performed within 4 weeks prior to randomisation
  • Men, and women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must agree to use adequate contraception for the duration of trial participation and as required after completing study treatment. Men must also agree to not donate sperm and women must agree to not donate oocytes during the specified period.
    • Note: See Section 5.8.5 for a definition of adequate contraception and required duration of contraceptive use following treatment with individual MTTs.
  • Disease relapse occurring at any time prior to randomisation
  • Surgery performed more than 16 weeks prior to randomisation
  • Previous adjuvant treatment, including any systemic treatment, or radiotherapy
  • Radiotherapy within 7 days of randomisation
  • Recent or concomitant treatment with brivudine
  • History of myocardial infarction or unstable angina within 6 months prior to enrolment, troponin levels consistent with myocardial infarction, or clinically significant cardiac disease, such as ventricular arrhythmia requiring therapy, uncontrolled hypertension, or any history of symptomatic congestive heart failure.
  • Participation in another therapeutic trial within the 30 days prior to entering the study (participation in an observational trial would be acceptable)
  • Concomitant treatment with strong CYP3A/P-gp inhibitors or strong or moderate CYP3A/P gp inducers where these cannot be substituted for another therapy.
    • Ivosidenib cohort
  • Concomitant treatment with digoxin where this cannot be substituted for another therapy
  • Concomitant treatment with strong CYP3A4 inducers or dabigatran where these cannot be substituted for another therapy
  • Use of corticosteroids administered at doses equivalent to \>15 mg per day of prednisone within 2 weeks of first zanidatamab dosing unless otherwise approved by the coordinating investigator. Topical, ocular, intra-articular, intranasal, and/or inhalational corticosteroids are permitted.

Other illness

  • Patients with gallbladder cancer which has not extended to involve the muscle layers or lymph nodes (pT1aN0)
  • Other invasive malignancies, with the exception of adequately treated cone-biopsied in situ carcinoma of the cervix uteri and basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. Cancer survivors, who have undergone potentially curative therapy for a prior malignancy, have no evidence of that disease for 3 years or more and are deemed at negligible risk for recurrence, are eligible for the trial
  • Any condition which in the Investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the subject to participate in the trial or which would jeopardize compliance with the protocol
  • History of malabsorption syndrome or other condition that would interfere with enteral absorption. For example, active intestine inflammation (e.g., Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis) requiring immunosuppressive therapy
  • Contraindication or known hypersensitivity to capecitabine or fluorouracil or to the MTT for the molecular alteration found in the patient, or any component in their formulation Note: For patients with multiple target alterations, contraindication to one MTT will not warrant exclusion if MTT to an alternative target is feasible.
  • History of severe and unexpected reactions to fluoropyrimidine therapy
  • Patients with HBV with HBV-DNA higher than 500IU/mL, active untreated HCV infection, or HIV infection with CD4 below 200. Patients with controlled HBV, HCV and HIV infections are allowed.
  • Any condition which in the Investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the subject to participate in the trial or which would jeopardize compliance with the protocol
  • Patients with history of torsade de pointes
  • Familial history of sudden death or polymorphic ventricular arrhythmia
  • Acute or chronic uncontrolled pancreatitis or Child-Pugh Class B or C liver disease.
  • A history of life-threatening hypersensitivity to monoclonal antibodies or recombinant proteins
