Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: (1) Obtain written informed consent before implementing any experimental procedures. (2) Age between 18 and 70 years (any gender). (3) Histologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable locally advanced or metastatic biliary tumors (intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and gallbladder carcinoma). (4) No prior systemic treatment, curative surgery, or adjuvant therapy allowed within the past 6 months. (5) Expected survival time > 3 months. (6) Presence of at least one measurable lesion according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. (7) ECOG Performance Status score of 0-1. (8) Adequate organ function, with the following laboratory criteria: a. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) = 1.5x10^9/L, without the use of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor in the past 14 days. b. Platelet count = 90x10^9/L, without transfusion in the past 14 days. c. Hemoglobin > 9 g/dL, without transfusion or use of erythropoietin-stimulating agents in the past 14 days. d. Total bilirubin = 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN). e. Aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) = 2.5 times ULN (ALT or AST = 5 times ULN for patients with liver metastases). f. Serum creatinine = 1.5 times ULN and creatinine clearance (calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault formula) = 60 ml/min. g. Coagulation function within normal limits, defined as international normalized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) = 1.5 times ULN. h. Normal thyroid function, defined as thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) within the normal range. If baseline TSH is outside the normal range, subjects with total triiodothyronine (T3) (or free T3) and free thyroxine (FT4) within the normal range can still be included. i. Normal cardiac enzymes (clinically insignificant isolated laboratory abnormalities are allowed, as determined by the investigator). (9) For premenopausal female subjects, a negative pregnancy test result (urine or serum) should be obtained within 3 days before the first dose of study drug (Day 1 of Cycle 1). If urine pregnancy test results cannot be confirmed as negative, a blood pregnancy test is required. Postmenopausal female is defined as at least 1 year after menopause or having undergone surgical sterilization or hysterectomy. (10) If there is a risk of pregnancy, all subjects (both male and female) must use contraception with a failure rate of less than 1% per year throughout the entire treatment period and for 120 days after the last dose of study drug.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: (1) Diagnosis of malignant diseases other than extrahepatic bile duct cancer, excluding completely resected basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, and/or in situ carcinoma within the past 5 years. (2) Tumors located in the ampulla of Vater. (3) Currently participating in an interventional clinical study or received other investigational drugs or investigational device treatment within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug. (4) Previously received therapy with anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 agents, or drugs targeting another T-cell receptor with inhibitory or co-stimulatory function (e.g., CTLA-4, OX-40, CD137). (5) Previously received palliative radiotherapy for biliary tumors, excluding postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy. (6) Received traditional Chinese medicine or immune modulatory drugs with anti-tumor indications within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug (including thymosin, interferon, interleukins), except for local use to control pleural effusion. (7) Active autoimmune diseases requiring systemic treatment within 2 years prior to the first dose of study drug, or known history of primary immunodeficiency diseases. Patients with positive autoimmune antibodies alone will be evaluated by the investigator to determine if they have autoimmune diseases. (8) Currently receiving systemic corticosteroid therapy (excluding intranasal, inhaled, or topical corticosteroids) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug. Physiological doses of corticosteroids (=10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) are permitted. (9) Uncontrolled pleural effusion or ascites that requires drainage or has not shown a significant increase in the past 3 days in patients who do not require drainage or whose drainage has been stopped. (10) Prior solid organ transplantation (excluding corneal transplantation) or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. (11) Known hypersensitivity to the study drug, carmilizumab active substance, or excipients. (12) Insufficient recovery from any toxicities and/or complications related to previous interventions before starting treatment (i.e., = Grade 1 or returning to baseline, excluding fatigue or alopecia). (13) Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (i.e., positive for HIV 1/2 antibodies). (14) Untreated active hepatitis B defined as positive HBsAg and detectable HBV-DNA levels above the upper limit of normal at the study center. Note: The following HBV-infected patients may be included: HBV viral load <2.5 × 10^3 copies/mL (500 IU/mL) prior to the first dose of study drug, and patients should receive anti-HBV therapy throughout the study treatment. For patients who are anti-HBc positive, HBsAg negative, anti-HBs negative, and HBV DNA negative, no prophylactic anti-HBV therapy is required, but viral reactivation needs to be closely monitored. (15) Active hepatitis C infection (positive for HCV antibodies and HCV-RNA levels above the lower limit of detection). (16) Vaccination with live attenuated vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug. (17) Pregnant or lactating women. (18) Presence of any severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases, including: Resting electrocardiogram with significant and symptomatic abnormalities in rhythm, conduction, or morphology, such as complete left bundle branch block, grade II or higher cardiac conduction block, ventricular arrhythmia, or atrial fibrill
