Own experience of using anti-HER2 therapy for cancer of the intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

Abstract
Cancer of the biliary tract is rare and one of the most aggressive malignancies. The main method of radical treatment is surgical. However, only 1/3 of patients can use this approach, while the rest of the patients have an unresectable, locally widespread or already metastatic process. The therapeutic tactic of this group of patients is systemic drug antitumor therapy. In this article, we present a description of a clinical case of effective treatment of a patient with advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma using not only standard cytostatics, but also modern targeted drugs.
