Condition: Biliary Tract Cancer · Sponsor: CHA University
This prospective, multicenter, observational study aims to evaluate the role of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer (BTC) patients in Korea. Tissue-based genomic profiling is often limited due to the anatomical challenges of tumor biopsy and insufficient DNA quality. ctDNA analysis offers a minimally invasive alternative for identifying actionable genetic alterations, including Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2 (FGFR2) fusions, Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutations, and Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) amplifications. The study will recruit 100 patients across 11 institutions and assess the concordance between ctDNA and tissue genomic profiling, as well as the clinical relevance of ctDNA in predicting treatment outcomes and prognosis.
