The standard chemotherapy for patients with unresectable cholangiocarcinoma is gemcitabine plus cisplatin, and gemcitabine plus S-1 (GS) chemotherapy is also reported to have similar effectiveness in Japan. However, the response rates of these two chemotherapies were modest, and no patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) have shown a pathological complete response (pCR) following these chemotherapies. We report here the first case of an initially unresectable locally advanced ICC that achieved pCR following GS chemotherapy.
对于无法切除的胆管癌患者,标准的化疗方案是吉西他滨加顺铂,而在日本,吉西他滨加 S-1(GS)化疗也被报道具有相似的疗效。然而,这两种化疗方案的缓解率都不高,而且没有肝内胆管癌(ICC)患者在这些化疗后出现病理完全缓解(pCR)。我们在此报告首例最初无法切除的局部晚期 ICC 患者,在接受 GS 化疗后达到 pCR。
