Therapeutic resources are limited for advanced biliary tract cancers and prognosis remains poor. Somatic mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)1/2 gene are found in 5-36% of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). The mutant forms of IDH1/2 catalyse the non-reversible accumulation of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG). Increasing numbers of indirect or direct-targeted therapies are developed to IDH1/2...
