Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a fatal malignancy with steadily increasing incidence and poor prognosis. Since most CCA cases are diagnosed at an advanced stage, systemic therapies, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy, play a crucial role in the management of unresectable CCA. The recent advances in targeted therapies and immunotherapies brought more options in the clinical management of unresectable CCA. This review depicts the advances of targeted therapies and immunotherapies for unresectable CCA, summarizes crucial clinical trials, and describes the efficacy and safety of different drugs, which may help further develop precision and individualization in the clinical treatment of unresectable CCA.

Pancreatic cancer has always been called the"king of cancer"due to its extremely high mortality.In recent years,the global incidence rate of pancreatic cancer has risen rapidly.Furthermore,pancreatic cancer is lack of effective therapeutic strategies and has seriously harmed human health.With the rapid development of precision therapy,targeted therapy for pancreatic cancer has also progressed rapidly.Although targeted therapy for pancreatic cancer has improved the prognosis of only a few patients,it has brought light to pancreatic cancer.This article reviews the research progress of therapeutic targets and related drugs for pancreatic cancer.

Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant tumor and its treatment is still a challenge.Recent studies have shown that medication plays an important role in preoperative and postoperative adjuvant therapy for locally advanced pancreatic cancer and is also a major thera-peutic method for advanced pancreatic cancer.It can improve the survival time and quality of life in patients with pancreatic cancer.Tradi-tional chemotherapy regimens based on gemcitabine and fluorouracil have limited effects in the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer,and studies on molecular targeted therapies have achieved some progress in recent years.With reference to related guidelines or consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer and important clinical trials of the treatment of pancreatic cancer,this article elaborates on the selection and therapeutic effect evaluation of chemotherapy regimens for pancreatic cancer.We believe that with the research and develop-ment of new drugs and the application of new techniques,the treatment of pancreatic cancer will achieve new breakthroughs in future.
