Our retrospective analysis of a large number of patients in a real-world setting found comparable efficacy outcomes to the ABC-02 trial. The prognostic factors identified here may help to predict clinical outcomes and design future clinical trials for advanced BTC.

Our study indicated that XP ID was effective, with manageable toxicities, in AGC patients with peritoneal metastasis. As the cumulative incidence of abdominal pain was probably related to bowel irritation by ID, it might be necessary to modify the dose.

Both everolimus and sunitinib were effective in GEP-NET patients. Outcomes of everolimus therapy in GEP-NETs were consistent with those reported elsewhere. Poor efficacy of sunitinib in non-pancreatic GI-NETs may be attributable to the baseline characteristics associated with poor clinical outcomes.
