Liver cancer represents the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the second most common type of liver cancer after hepatocellular carcinoma, accounting for 10-15% of all primary liver malignancies. Both the incidence and mortality of CCA have been steadily increasing during the last decade. Moreover, most CCAs are diagnosed at an advanced stage, when therapeutic options are very limited.

Abstract

Liver cancer represents the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the second most common type of liver cancer after hepatocellular carcinoma, accounting for 10-15% of all primary liver malignancies. Both the incidence and mortality of CCA have been steadily increasing during the last decade. Moreover, most CCAs are diagnosed at an advanced stage, when therapeutic options are very limited.
