Summary

LIRICA is a prospective non-randomized study aimed at exploring the outcome of liver transplantation in selected patients with unresectable iCCA after a downstaging/disease control protocol with standard of care chemotherapy, in terms of overall survival and quality of life. Additionally, the study aims to identify pre-transplant biological markers and clinical factors that can stratify patients with the best post-transplant prognosis. Finally, the study aims to investigate the role of preoperative PET-MR, especially in relation to lymph node locations, by correlating the results with histological examination after iliac lymphadenectomy.

Conditions

  • Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Liver transplantation

Patients will undergo liver transplantation according to the standard procedures of the institutional Center's protocol (cadaveric or living donor transplantation, whole or partial liver). Liver transplantation is preceded by an exploratory laparotomy with clinical evaluation and frozen section examination of lymph nodes in the hepatoduodenal ligament and along the common hepatic artery/celiac axis.
