Development of prognostic models for resected distal cholangiocarcinoma

Distal cholangiocarcinoma is a biliary malignancy associated with poor oncological outcomes with a 5-year survival rate after surgery from 16% to 39.5%. There’s an urgent need to develop a valid prognostic model that assesses the clinical implications of combination of prognostic indicators for rese...

Sumario:Distal cholangiocarcinoma is a biliary malignancy associated with poor oncological outcomes with a 5-year survival rate after surgery from 16% to 39.5%. There’s an urgent need to develop a valid prognostic model that assesses the clinical implications of combination of prognostic indicators for resected distal cholangiocarcinoma, identifying high-risk patients for recurrence. This doctoral thesis is based on two published articles. For the first study, we have developed a nomogram integrating independent prognostic factors to create a prognostic model for recurrence-free survival in distal cholangiocarcinoma. For the second study, A LASSO-regularized Cox regression model was employed for feature selection, examining coefficients' paths and creating a model to predict recurrence. Additionally, a web application was developed to enhance the clinical use of the algorithm.
