Genetic Variant of CXCR1 (rs2234671) Associates with Clinical Outcome in Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma

1 Jan 2022

Abstract excerpt

<b><i>Background:</i></b> Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) is a rare primary liver malignancy. Even in patients amenable to surgery, outcomes are often dismal. Here, we aimed to identify prognostic markers for patient outcomes by analyzing functionally relevant single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes with a role in tumor inflammation and angiogenesis. We analyzed 11...
