Summary

A prospective multicentre study which includes patients ≤ 70 years-old diagnosed of unresectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) ≤3cm in radial diameter, without evidence of lymph node or distant metastases. Liver transplantation preceded by neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy will be performed in this selected group.

The primary endpoint will be overall survival at 1, 3, and 5 years post-transplant. The secondary endpoints will be: 1) recurrence-free survival at 1, 3 and 5 years post-transplant; 2) intention-to-treat survival of all patients included in the study at 1,3 and 5 years; 3) the rate of patients included in the study who are finally transplanted.
