Brief Summary: Based on preclinical data from the Lim lab (WUSM), the investigators hypothesize that IRAK4 inhibition cripples tumor-intrinsic survival signaling and effectively overcomes the desmoplastic and immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) to render chemo- and immunotherapies effective in GI malignancy. Therefore, this trial is designed to evaluate the combination of CA-4948 and standard chemoimmunotherapy in untreated advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer.
Detailed Description: The first part of the study will be dose escalation of CA-4948 in combination with standard of care (SOC) cisplatin, gemcitabine, and durvalumab. Once the expansion dose of CA-4948 is determined, the expansion part of the study will open. All patients will be treated with CA-4948 in combination with SOC cisplatin, gemcitabine, and durvalumab for up to 8 total cycles. Patients may receive no more than 8 total cycles of gemcitabine and cisplatin for BTC. Up to 2 cycles of gemcitabine and cisplatin, with or without durvalumab, may be given off protocol prior to enrollment; therefore, some patients may only receive 6 or 7 cycles of gemcitabine, cisplatin, and durvalumab in combination with CA-4948 on study. After 8 cycles, patients will discontinue cisplatin and gemcitabine and continue maintenance CA-4948 and durvalumab.
