Abstract: ObjectiveSurgical resection is the only available treatment for achieving long-term survival in cholangiocarcinoma. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the utility of chemoradiotherapy for initially unresectable locally advanced cholangiocarcinoma.MethodsUnresectable locally advanced cholangiocarcinoma was… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND Present treatment strategy for unresectable locally advanced (UR-LA) pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients is controversial. Hence, a triple-modal therapy, which is a multidisciplinary strategy, was designed for patients with UR-LA PDAC by adding hyperthermia… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/cancers13164224
Abstract: Simple Summary Upon diagnosis, about 35% of patients have initially unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer. The prognosis of these patients is still poor. Chemotherapy alone has been generally accepted as a standard therapeutic approach. However,… read more here.
