Résumé
The incidence of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is increasing. The aim of the study was to provide reference survival data for patients with advanced iCCA treated with first-line cisplatin-gemcitabine chemotherapy (current standard of care). Individual data from patients with iCCA recruited into the prospective, random assignment Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer (ABC)-01, -02, and -03 studies were retrieved. The prevalence and survival of liver-only iCCA was also assessed. Survival analysis was performed using univariate and multivariable Cox regression. All statistical tests were two-sided. Of 534 patients recruited into the ABC-01, -02, and -03 studies, 109 (20.4%) had iCCA. Most patients (n = 86, 78.9%) had metastatic disease at the time of recruitment; 52 patients (47.7%) had liver-only disease. Following random assignment, 66 (60.6%) iCCA patients received cisplatin and gemcitabine. The median progression-free and overall survival (OS) were 8.4 months (95% confidence interval [CI] = 5.9 to 8.9 months) and 15.4 months (95% CI = 11.1 to 17.9 months), respectively. Of these 66 patients, 34 patients (51.5%) had liver-only disease. Following chemotherapy, 30 (45.5%) and 21 (31.8%) were progression-free at 3 and 6 months from chemotherapy commencement, respectively. The median OS for patients with liver-only iCCA at diagnosis and after 3 and 6 months of chemotherapy was 16.7 months (95% CI = 8.7 to 20.2 months), 17.9 months (95% CI = 11.7 to 20.9 months), and 18.9 months (95% CI = 16.7 to 25.9 months), respectively. Multivariable analysis confirmed that iCCA had a longer OS compared with other non-iCCA biliary tract cancers (hazard ratio = 0.58, 95% CI = 0.35 to 0.95, P value = .03); liver-only iCCA patients also showed longer OS even though findings did not reach statistical significance (hazard ratio = 0.65, 95% CI = 0.36 to 1.19, P value = .16). Patients diagnosed with advanced iCCA have a better OS compared with other biliary tract cancers; a similar trend was identified for patients diagnosed with liver-only iCCA. These findings are to be considered for future clinical trial design.

BACKGROUND
The incidence of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is increasing. The aim of the study was to provide reference survival data for patients with advanced iCCA treated with first-line cisplatin-gemcitabine chemotherapy (current standard of care).
METHODS
Individual data from patients with iCCA recruited into the prospective, random assignment Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer (ABC)-01, -02, and -03 studies were retrieved. The prevalence and survival of liver-only iCCA was also assessed. Survival analysis was performed using univariate and multivariable Cox regression. All statistical tests were two-sided.
RESULTS
Of 534 patients recruited into the ABC-01, -02, and -03 studies, 109 (20.4%) had iCCA. Most patients (n = 86, 78.9%) had metastatic disease at the time of recruitment; 52 patients (47.7%) had liver-only disease. Following random assignment, 66 (60.6%) iCCA patients received cisplatin and gemcitabine. The median progression-free and overall survival (OS) were 8.4 months (95% confidence interval [CI] = 5.9 to 8.9 months) and 15.4 months (95% CI = 11.1 to 17.9 months), respectively. Of these 66 patients, 34 patients (51.5%) had liver-only disease. Following chemotherapy, 30 (45.5%) and 21 (31.8%) were progression-free at 3 and 6 months from chemotherapy commencement, respectively. The median OS for patients with liver-only iCCA at diagnosis and after 3 and 6 months of chemotherapy was 16.7 months (95% CI = 8.7 to 20.2 months), 17.9 months (95% CI = 11.7 to 20.9 months), and 18.9 months (95% CI = 16.7 to 25.9 months), respectively. Multivariable analysis confirmed that iCCA had a longer OS compared with other non-iCCA biliary tract cancers (hazard ratio = 0.58, 95% CI = 0.35 to 0.95, P value = .03); liver-only iCCA patients also showed longer OS even though findings did not reach statistical significance (hazard ratio = 0.65, 95% CI = 0.36 to 1.19, P value = .16).
CONCLUSIONS
Patients diagnosed with advanced iCCA have a better OS compared with other biliary tract cancers; a similar trend was identified for patients diagnosed with liver-only iCCA. These findings are to be considered for future clinical trial design.
