Transcript:Milind M. Javle, MD: Inthe final segment of this program, we’re going to talk about targeted therapy. Dr Shroff, the last few years have been exciting, with 4 agents approved: infigratinib, pemigatinib, futibatinib, and ivosidenib. Perhaps there are more to come in the next year or 2. This is quite a staggering trajectory. Could you reflect on the FGFR space? There appears to be some redundancy and overlap in this space. What are you looking forward to?

Transcript:Milind M. Javle, MD: I’m going to move on to systemic therapy for advanced and resectable disease. Dr Shroff, you led the SWOG S1815 trial. It was a pioneering trial because it was the first randomized phase 3 trial in this space. We’ve been eagerly anticipating the result. You gave a presentation [at the American Society of Clinical Oncology Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium, ASCO GI].

Transcript:Milind M. Javle, MD: Dr Rocha, the ultimate local therapy, liver transplant, is an accepted modality for the other liver cancer, HCC [hepatocellular carcinoma]. But I recall the original Milan criteria in NEJM [New England Journal of Medicine], which reflected on the fact that HCC used to be a contraindication for liver transplants sometime ago. There has been a sea change in cholangiocarcinoma as well. Could you comment on hilar cholangiocarcinoma and your experience there? Flavio G.

Transcript:Milind M. Javle, MD: I’m going to switch gears slightly. Dr Koay, and perhaps Dr Rocha as well, there are a variety of liver-directed therapies, and it’s quite confusing which way to go. There’s radioembolization, radiation therapy, radiofrequency ablation. Some places are also doing chemoembolization. How do we choose which is the appropriate modality?

Transcript:Milind M. Javle, MD: Why are we talking about surgical resection? It turns out, Dr Rocha, that this patient is surgically resectable, but unfortunately, the risk of recurrence is too high. Could you highlight what your approach is and how this has changed over the years for surgical as well as perioperative therapy? Flavio G. Rocha, MD, FACS, FSSO: Yes. These hilar cholangiocarcinomas are probably the most challenging operation that we do in the abdomen.
