 c-Met targeted therapy of cholangiocarcinoma
 Matei P Socoteanu;Frank Mott;Gianfranco Alpini;Arthur E Frankel
   Cholangiocarcinoma continues to be a challenging disease to treat. Systemic therapy is used in unresectable disease, disease progression after surgery, and in the palliative setting. Unfortunately, results of multiple phase Ⅱ trials have rarely yielded positive results. As data on the molecular carcinogenesis of cholangiocarcinoma is developing, we are more able to understand the disease process and can use this understanding to create unique targeted therapies. We reviewed the role of c-Met/ hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in the development of cholangiocarcinoma. Furthermore, we explored the use of the c-Met guided cascade as a target to treat cholangiocarcinoma. We reviewed the current use and options for future development of c-Met agents to treat this disease.

  CHOLANGIOCARCINOMA Cholangiocarcinoma continues to be a challengingdisease to treat. The only curative option remains surgical resection. Recent trends have allowed previously inoperable patients to undergo potentially curative surgery. Most recently, liv…
