Abstract:
The incidence of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) has been increasing year by year. For most patients, surgical resection is not suitable when they are diagnosed as ICC. Conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy are not effective for the long-term survival rate of ICC patients and lead to the poor overall prognosis. In recent years, with the deepening understanding about the molecular mechanism of biliary malignant tumors, some key genes and signaling pathways related to the pathogenesis of ICC have been identified, providing new ideas for the targeted therapy. In this paper, major molecular mechanisms and targeted therapies of ICC are reviewed.
