Abstract
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is a condition with a poor prognosis. Traditionally, there was no cure unless important drugs such as gemcitabine, cisplatin, and tegafur/gimeracil/uracil potassium showed efficacy. Pemigatinib has recently become accessible for the treatment of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with FGFR2 fusion or rearrangement gene abnormalities. Hyperphosphatemia is typically linked to pemigatinib. In the current case, pemigatinib was used to effectively treat a 48-year-old woman, and hypophosphatemia was observed. Patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma should undergo aggressive cancer multigene panel testing as well as careful monitoring of serum phosphorus levels.
期刊介绍:
This online-only journal publishes original case reports on all types of cancer. In particular, we welcome not only case reports of educational value in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers, but also reports on molecularly analyzed cancer cases, including gene mutations, gene fusions, gene expression, and changes in copy number, regardless of their known clinical significance. Assessing the molecular analysis of a tumor usually requires a “cancer conference” in which experts from various fields discuss it. Even if the authors and their respective “cancer conference” were unable to determine the clinical significance of molecular changes at the time of submission and publication, their data may provide evidence that will help the scientific community develop precision medicine solutions in the future. We welcome case reports with reviews of the literature on similar cases, as they are more useful and valuable to readers than are reports of rare cases. International Cancer Conference Journal is the official publication of the Japan Society of Clinical Oncology (JSCO).
