abstract = {Hepatobiliary tract cancers (HBTCs) are a heterogeneous
group of cancers with high mortality. Because most of these
cancers, with the exception of hepatocellular carcinoma
(HCC), are rare, few data are available concerning the
population level survival expectations of patients with
HBTC. Here, we describe survival of patients with HBTC in
Germany with comparison to survival in the US. Therefore,
data were extracted from 12 databases in Germany and the
Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER13) database
in the US. Period analysis and modeled period analysis were
used to calculate 5-year relative survival estimates for
patients with HBTC diagnosed from 1997 to 2013. HCC was the
most common HBTC in each database, accounting for over 1/3
of HBTC in Germany and about half of cases in the US.
Overall age adjusted 5-year relative survival for HBTC in
2006-2013 was $19.1\%$ in Germany and $20.6\%$ in the US.
Five-year relative survival increased by $3.8\%$ units in
Germany and $4.5\%$ units in the US between 2002-2005 and
2010-2013. Five-year relative survival for individual types
of HBTC ranged from $9.8\%$ in Germany and $2.9\%$ in the US
for not otherwise specified biliary tract cancers to
$44.4\%$ and $50.1\%,$ respectively, in Germany and the US
for duodenal cancers. In conclusion, survival for HBTC
remains poor in both Germany and the US, although a small
increase in survival in the past decade was observed.
Further work to find better treatment options for HBTC is
needed to improve survival.},
