Light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) parametrize the relevant hadronic information in factorization-based predictions for exclusive reactions with large energy/momentum transfer. In this talk we focus on the LCDAs of heavy hadrons containing one heavy b-quark in the framework of heavy-quark effective theory (HQET). We explain how theoretical information about the so-called ”radiative tail” in fixed-order perturbation theory can be consistently implemented in the construction of models or generic parametrizations of the LCDAs. As a specific example, we apply our approach to a generalized 3-particle LCDA of the B-meson, where the light quark and gluon field are separated along opposite light-cone directions, and briefly discuss the phenomenological relevance for rare exclusive B-meson decays.
