Study Summary

This phase II trial studies how well ramucirumab works in treating patients with previously treated biliary cancers that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced) or have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and cannot be removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ramucirumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

Primary Outcome

Progression free survival is measured using 95% confidence intervals. From the date of treatment start to the date of disease progression or to the date of death, whichever occurs first, or to the last follow-up date if patients are alive without disease progression, assessed up to at least 3 months post-treatment
