Tanaka et al. previously reported a case in which nivolumab for recurrent occupational cholangiocarcinoma resulted in complete response persisting for 26 months after discontinuation. Afterward, in that clinical trial, nivolumab was administered to two patients for recurrence. Both patients achieved complete response, suggesting that nivolumab is effective for occupational cholangiocarcinoma.
