[OA-23] Tropomyosin receptor kinase protein expression in Thai cholangiocarcinoma: clinicopathological correlation, pattern expression and prognosis

Tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) gene fusion has been found in associated with many tumours and coold be targeted treatment. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) expression of TRK is widely used to screening this alternation. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of TRK protein detected by IHC in Thai cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) and to correlate with clinicopathological and survival data. Retrospective study of CCA patients who diagnosed from January 2011 to December 2015. ...
