Abstract: Biliary tract cancers comprise a spectrum of invasive tumors with poor progno-sis, which are composed of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder cancer. Due to the difficulty of early diagnosis of biliary tract cancers, most patients are diagnosed in the late stage with low surgical resection rates. Moreover, the efficacy of traditional chemotherapy regimens, such as gemcitabine plus cisplatin, is limited. In recent years, the rise of immune checkpoint inhibitors and molecular targeted therapy have provided new treatment options for patients with advanced biliary tract cancers. Based on literature reports and team experiences, the authors discuss the latest research progress in the immunotherapy and molecular targeted therapy of biliary tract cancers, and explore future treatment strategies.
