Survival outcomes for advanced cholangiocarcinoma remain suboptimal, despite first-line treatment with cytotoxic chemotherapy. Greater understanding of the pathobiology of cholangiocarcinoma has illuminated a variety of treatment targets, leading to several treatment advances. In this 0.5-hour activity, medical oncologist Lipika Goyal, MD, MPhil, discusses key concepts in navigating through the selection and use of these agents, including managing associated adverse events, helping shape the management of advanced cholangiocarcinoma to optimize patient care.
