Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine, cisplatin, and durvalumab (GCD) combination therapy in patients with biliary tract cancer treated at our hospital.
Methods: Nineteen patients diagnosed with biliary tract cancer and treated with durvalumab combination therapy at Tokai University Hachioji Hospital between February 1, 2023, and May 31, 2024, were included in this retrospective study.
Results: The median overall survival was 13.7 months, and the median progression-free survival was 7.3 months, comparable to outcomes reported in the TOPAZ-1 trial.
Conclusion: GCD therapy demonstrated efficacy and safety similar to those observed in the TOPAZ-1 trial.
