Impact of Hepatitis B Virus Infection on the Efficacy and Safety of Pembrolizumab plus Chemotherapy for Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer in the KEYNOTE-966 Study

Chronic HBV infection is a risk factor for BTC, potentially affecting the effectiveness of BTC treatment. In this study, treatment outcomes in participants who received first-line pembrolizumab plus gemcitabine and cisplatin for advanced BTC treatment were consistent regardless of HBV infection status.

Abstract

Chronic HBV infection is a risk factor for BTC, potentially affecting the effectiveness of BTC treatment. In this study, treatment outcomes in participants who received first-line pembrolizumab plus gemcitabine and cisplatin for advanced BTC treatment were consistent regardless of HBV infection status.
