Dear OZGE, welcome to the best place to be for CC support. I am not sure about which Chemo is better but if you go to our search button at the top of the page and type in a word a lot of posts will appear on that subject. You are being a great advocate for your Father and knowledge is the best thing we can gain to fight this dreadful CC. Congratulations on his Surgery as surgery is one of our favorite words! Below are some links that you may find helpful and please do keep us updated on his progress as we truly care.

http://cholangiocarcinoma.org/professionals/research/patient-registry/Hi,
My father had an operation due to extrahepatic bile duct cancer. His tumor is resected, now he is getting adjuvant therapy.
He received two cures of 5-Fluorouracil. We have changed the oncologist. Now he started a new treatment with gemcitabine+oxalpin. By the way, the oncologist explained that 5-Fluorouracil is also fine.
Is there anybody who knows anything about these medicines? As far as I understood, gemcitabine + cisplatin is the most widely mentioned medicines in this forum. But our oncologist did not choose to use them, I am not sure why.
I would be grateful if you share your experience with me.
Thanks.
I wish the best for all of us.
