Abstract

Background

Only two clinical trials have shown the effects of neoadjuvant treatment for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer with arterial involvement (BRPC-A). Here, we aimed to analyze the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel (GnP) for BRPC-A.

Patients and Methods

A prospective, single-arm, multicenter phase II trial was conducted. Patients who were radiologically and histologically diagnosed with BRPC-A were enrolled. A central review was conducted to confirm the presence of BRPC-A. Patients received two to four cycles of GnP before surgery. The primary endpoint of the study was the R0 resection rate. Overall survival (OS) was evaluated in an ancillary study.

Results

Thirty-five patients were enrolled, of whom 33 were subjected to central review and 28 were confirmed to have BRPC-A. All eligible patients with BRPC-A received neoadjuvant GnP. Nineteen patients underwent pancreatic resections. Postoperative complications of Clavien–Dindo IIIa or lower were observed in 11 patients. No treatment-related mortalities were observed. R0 resection was achieved in 17 patients (89%); the R0 resection rate was 61% in eligible patients. One patient underwent curative resection after termination of the treatment protocol, resulting in an overall R0 resection rate of 64%. The median overall survival (OS) and 2-year OS rate were 24.9 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 19.0 months to not estimatable] and 53.6%, respectively. OS in patients with BRPC-A who achieved overall R0 resection was significantly longer than that in the other patients (p = 0.0255).

Conclusions

Neoadjuvant GnP is a safe and effective strategy for BRPC-A, providing a chance for curative resection and improved survival.

Hochrisiko-Spinaliom am besten mit der Mohs-Chirurgie entfernen

Die Mohs-Chirurgie ist zwar mit mehr Aufwand verbunden als die herkömmliche Exzision; für die Versorgung kutaner Hochrisiko-Plattenepithelkarzinome lohnt sich die zeitintensive Technik aber in jedem Fall. Laut einer aktuellen Studie sinkt im Vergleich das Sterberisiko.

Darmpolyp weg – Peptid-Gel gegen Nachblutungen drauf?

Das Nachblutungsrisiko nach einer endoskopischen Mukosaresektion von flachen kolorektalen und duodenalen Adenomen war in der deutschen PURPLE-Studie mit einem hämostatischen Gel nicht kleiner als ohne Prophylaxe.

Krebs-Op. besser erst nach mehrwöchigem Rauchverzicht?

Aktive Raucher haben nach onkologischen Operationen ein höheres Komplikationsrisiko als Nieraucher, aber auch als Exraucher. Damit der Rauchstopp einen Nutzen hat, darf er aber nicht zu kurz vor der Op. erfolgen, wie eine Metaanalyse nahelegt.

Periprozeduraler Myokardschaden nach NSTEMI prognostisch bedeutsam

Erleiden NSTEMI-Patienten und -Patientinnen infolge einer PCI Myokardschädigungen mit oder ohne Infarkt, erhöht das die Gesamtmortalität und das Risiko für weitere schwere Herzereignisse. Dafür sprechen zumindest Daten aus zwei italienischen Zentren.
