DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Biliary Tract Cancers (BTCs) - Market Insight, Epidemiology And Market Forecast - 2032" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Biliary Tract Cancer market report provides current treatment practices, emerging drugs, Biliary Tract Cancer market share of the individual therapies, current and forecasted Biliary Tract Cancer market Size from 2019 to 2032 segmented by seven major markets.

The report also covers current Biliary Tract Cancer treatment practice/algorithm, market drivers, market barriers, and unmet medical needs to curate the best of the opportunities and assesses the underlying potential of the market.

Diagnosis

For a definitive diagnosis, patients usually undergo endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and several procedures named as cytology, brushing, FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization)-polisomy, biopsy, ultrasonography, choledochoscopy, cholangioscopy, chromoendoscopy, confocal endoscopy, narrow-band imaging. MRI, CT, endoscopic ultrasonography, or 18FDG PET-CT cannot definitively demonstrate the stricture's neoplastic nature.

Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration demonstrated good diagnostic performance for discriminating benign versus malignant biliary strictures and without apparent risk of tumor seeding linked with the procedure. As for iCCA, the risk of tumor seeding after transperitoneal biopsy of pCCA is based on limited evidence.

The role of FISH-polisomy in detecting CCA in patients with PSC has been questioned by a meta-analysis due to its limited sensitivity. Better markers are therefore required for early CCA detection. In this regard, serum CA19-9 levels can be helpful for the detection of CCA. However, the CA19-9 serum level is biased by elevation due to cholangitis and cholestasis and is undetectable in Lewis-antigen-negative patients.

Treatment

Surgical treatments are the only potentially curative therapeutic options for all the subtypes of CCA. However, the majority of CCA patients are diagnosed at late-stage disease, and nearly more than one-fourth of patients considered resectable are found to be unresectable during explorative laparotomy. Few more aggressive surgical approaches and improved radiologic techniques have resulted in improved R0 (tumor-free margins) resection rates, but recurrence rates remain high.

As per the ESMO guidelines, adjuvant therapy (radiotherapy, chemoradiotherapy, or chemotherapy alone) may be offered to patients to understand that the evidence base is weak and only after a risk-benefit assessment; participation in clinical trials should be encouraged. Patients with the initially inoperable and non-metastatic disease should be discussed at the multidisciplinary tumor board to salvage surgery in the event of a good response to systemic and/or locoregional treatment, including participation in clinical trials.

As a part of palliative treatment, systemic chemotherapy is the treatment of choice for patients with locally advanced or inoperable disease - combination chemotherapy for PS 0-1 patients and monotherapy for PS 2 patients. Cisplatin/gemcitabine is the reference chemotherapy regimen for good PS (0-1) patients, and oxaliplatin may be substituted for cisplatin where there is a concern about renal function.

Gemcitabine monotherapy can also be considered for PS 2 patients. A systematic review of trials concluded insufficient evidence is available to recommend second-line chemotherapy. In medical practice, a fluoropyrimidine-based regimen is often used when gemcitabine-based treatment fails.
