Background: The incidence of early-onset pancreatic cancer (EOPC) has risen dramatically in recent years. We aimed to characterise the clinical and genomic features of EOPC and evaluate their therapeutic implications.
Methods: We performed a comparative, single-centre, retrospective analysis of clinical, germline, and genomic features in EOPC (≤50 years) patients and compared them with a control group of average-onset pancreatic cancer patients (AOPC, ≥70 years).
Purpose: Treatment options for advanced cholangiocarcinoma are limited and prognosis is poor. Cholangiocarcinomas are highly heterogeneous at the molecular level, with divergent patterns between intrahepatic and extrahepatic forms, intrahepatic being particularly rich in actionable alterations. We compared survival in patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma harboring alterations matched to targeted drugs, with patients harboring nonactionable alterations.
