Published in 2020 at "Hepatology"

DOI: 10.1002/hep.31642

Abstract: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a devastating disease often detected at advanced stages when surgery cannot be performed. Conventional and targeted systemic therapies perform poorly, and therefore effective drugs are urgently needed. Different epigenetic modifications occur in… read more here.
