Résumé

Advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC) has a poor prognosis. Gemcitabine with platinum chemotherapy was the standard first-line chemotherapeutic regimen until the recent addition of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies. After disease progression, the only second-line chemotherapy that has demonstrated a survival benefit versus supportive care is FOLFOX (folinic acid, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin), with a modest benefit. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of second-line FOLFIRI (folinic acid, fluorouracil, and irinotecan) combined with bevacizumab for advanced BTC.
