Download or read book Hepatobiliary Cancers: Translational Advances and Molecular Medicine written by and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2022-08-10 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hepatobiliary cancer refers to primary malignant tumors originating in cells of the liver, bile ducts, and gallbladder. Globally, primary liver cancer, which includes hepatocellular carcinoma (~75 % of all cases) and intrahepatic biliary cancer or cholangiocarcinoma (~10-15 % 0f all cases) is the 6th most commonly diagnosed cancer and 3rd leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. The vast majority of these highly malignant cancers are diagnosed at an advanced stage where treatment options are limited and patient survival outcomes are poor. The biological and therapeutic challenges posed by hepatobililiary cancers such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) are daunting, emphasizing a critical need to review and assess current and evolving basic, translational, and clinical research focused on addressing the critical obstacles that continue to limit progress towards achieving significant improvements in HCC and CCA clinical management and patient survival outcomes. Towards this goal, this special edition of Advances in Cancer Research is focused on providing a comprehensive, timely and authoritative reviews covering such topics of significant scientific and clinical relevance, including hepatobiliary cancer risk mechanisms and risk-predictive molecular biomarkers; causes and functional intricacies of inter- and intratumor heterogeneity; novel insights into the role of tumor microenvironment and key signaling pathways in promoting hepatobiliary cancer progression, therapeutic resistance and immunosuppression; emerging biomarkers of HCC and CCA prognosis; advances in molecular genomics for personalizing tumor classification and targeted therapies; innovative preclinical cell culture modeling for hepatobiliary cancer drug discovery; and current and emerging trends in hepatobiliary cancer molecular therapeutic targeting and immunotherapies. Up-to date review of hepatobiliary cancers molecular genetics, novel predictive molecular biomarkers, and distinct mechanisms of inter-and intratumor heterogeneity Novel insights into the role of tumor microenvironment as a promoter of hepatobiliary cancer progression and therapeutic resistance, as well as an emerging therapeutic target Current and emerging approaches and strategies for advancing personalized molecular therapeutic targeting and immunotherapy of hepatobiliary cancers

Book excerpt: Download the ebooks for this Research Topic: Volume I.A: ¦PDF¦ ¦EPUB Volume I.B: ¦PDF¦ ¦ EPUB Hepatobiliary tumor, mainly including hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder cancer, is a group of highly aggressive malignancies. Hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder cancer have different biological characters, histopathological traits, and treatment strategies, but have similar clinical features such as silent early symptom and extremely poor prognosis. The diagnostic, predictive or prognostic tumor biomarkers of hepatobiliary cancers are in unmet need. In contrast to the poor outcome, the treatment options to hepatobiliary cancers are very limited. It is still controversial about the effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy of hepatobiliary cancer. FDA-approved targeted drugs are only Sorafenib and Lenvatinib for hepatocellular carcinoma, and Pemigatinib for cholangiocarcinoma. Unfortunately, these drugs are only effective for 5%-30% patients. Therefore, more attention should be called upon on investigating effective biomarkers and drug targets, stratifying high-risk patients, guiding precise treatments, and developing therapeutic strategies for hepatobiliary cancers. This Research Topic aims at discussing the current knowledge and proceedings of diagnostic, predictive and prognostic tumor biomarkers in hepatobiliary cancer, and presenting the recent advances on new drug targets and potential targeted therapies of hepatobiliary cancer. We welcome submissions of Review, Mini-Review, Clinical Trial and Original Research articles covering, but not limited to, the following topics: 1. new diagnostic/prognostic factors, biomarkers and/or risk factors in hepatobiliary tumors 2. new drug targets, and oncogenic or tumor suppressive molecular mechanism of the novel targets 3. new intervention or targeted therapy in hepatobiliary tumors 4. new findings of bioinformatics or high-throughput methods such as mass spectrometry and genome-wide association studies or which may help screen the potential biomarkers of hepatobiliary tumors 5. clinical studies such as cohort study or RCT to identify new risks or treatment therapies in hepatobiliary tumors 6. basic, pharmacological, preclinical or clinical study of potential drugs targeting hepatobiliary tumors Please note: manuscripts consisting solely of bioinformatics or computational analysis of public genomic or transcriptomic databases which are not accompanied by validation (independent cohort or biological validation in vitro or in vivo) are out of scope for this section and will not be accepted as part of this Research Topic.

This book was released on 2023-11-24 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hepatobiliary cancers, encompassing biliary tract cancer (BTC) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are highly lethal. Biliary tract cancer is a deadly disease with a very low five-year survival rate. BTC is assumed to be the fifth most common gastrointestinal malignancy and can be categorized into extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (EHC), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHC) and gallbladder cancer (GBC), based on the anatomic location. Patients suffering from BTC can be currently treated with radiation therapy, palliative or with a combination of two chemotherapeutics, cisplatin and gemcitabine. Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most prevalent form of liver cancers and was responsible for over 830,000 deaths related to cancer worldwide in 2020. HCC is therefore the second most leading cause of cancer deaths globally. Current treatment options encompass targeted therapy with sorafenib, immunotherapy and post-surgery adjuvant chemotherapy. Factors that might contribute to these dismal outcomes are diagnosis at an already late stage, due to unspecific symptoms, limited therapeutic options, lack of targets and understanding of molecular processes during carcinogenesis as well as resistance to current chemotherapy/treatment. Therefore, these current issues need to be further addressed and solutions and alternative approaches must be provided in order to detect these illnesses at an early stage, prolong the survival time of patients suffering from HCC and BTC and overcome general resistance to available treatment options. The aim of this research topic is to provide an overview about mechanisms of therapy resistance, the identification of therapeutic relevant targets and finally, innovative and alternative approaches for treating BTC and HCC successfully.
