Background and Aims: Primary liver cancers (LCs), including HCC intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA), are derived from a common developmental lineage, conferring molecular spectrum between them. To elucidate the spectrum, we performed an integrative analysis of transcriptome profiles associated with patients’ radiopathologic features. Approach Results: We identified four LC subtypes (LC1–LC4) RNA‐sequencing profiles, revealing intermediate iCCA. LC1 is typical characterized by active bile...

Recently, anti-programmed cell death-1/anti-programmed death ligand-1 (anti-PD1/L1) immunotherapy has been demonstrated for its efficacy when combined with cytotoxic chemotherapy in randomized phase 3 trials advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC). However, no biomarker predictive of benefit established anti-PD1/L1 BTC. Here, we evaluated tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) using artificial intelligence-powered immune phenotype (AI-IP) analysis BTC treated anti-PD1.

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) with a ductal plate malformation (DPM) pattern is recently recognized rare variant. The genomic profile of iCCA DPM needs to be elucidated.Cases were retrospectively reviewed based on the medical records, pathology slides, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reports collected between 2010 2019 at single center. Massive parallel sequencing was performed for >500 cancer-related genes.From total 175 iCCAs, five (2.9%) cases identified. All small duct...

Gastric-type mucinous carcinoma (MC-G) of the uterine cervix displays distinct morphological features and an aggressive clinical course. The expression status p16 in stroma has not been investigated adenocarcinoma cervix. Stromal was evaluated endocervical adenocarcinomas, including usual-type (UEA), intestinal-type (MC-I), MC-G. Whether stromal varied significantly according to histological subtype whether is associated with clinicopathological characteristics MC-G also...
