Precision Medicine in Patients With Unresectable CholAngiocarcinoma: RadioEmbolization and Combined Biological Therapy

Sponsor: Francesco De Cobelli

Summary

Underlying disease mechanisms are fundamental for correct treatment selection and patient management in highly invasive and debilitating non-transmissible diseases. Even though overall disease burden of cancer may have decreased due to a higher degree of awareness, the availability of high-quality healthcare and early diagnosis may become challenging in certain neoplasms. Cholangiocarcinoma is usually diagnosed at advanced stages due to non-specific presentation and is frequently refractory to chemotherapy, causing a massive impact on patients and their families. Surgery is currently the only curative treatment but is available to only approximately 30% of patients. The combination of interventional- and immune-oncology to standard of care creates the perfect substrate for synergistic mechanisms to fight tumor growth; in situ cell death following transarterial embolization(TARE) elicits immune mediated response, inflammatory response and biomarkers of oxidative stress and increases antigen presenting T-cells which an anti-anti progam death ligand (PD-L)1 can bind to; standard of care can then add on with its known effects.The rationale of a combined- locoregional and systemic - treatment lies in the synergistic effects of each of the treatments.
