Brief Title: Clinical Outcomes of Surgery After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

Official Title: Clinical Outcomes of Surgery After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Locally Advanced Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma: is it Really Comparable to Borderline Resectable or Resectable Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma?

Study ID: NCT05888129

Study Description

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical outcomes of patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LA-PC) who underwent surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) at Asan Medical Center's Department of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery from 2017 to 2020.

Detailed Description: Pancreatic cancer (PC) has a very low survival rate. Most PC patients have non-specific symptoms that are advanced enough to be contraindications for surgical treatment; therefore, surgery is often impossible by the time PC is diagnosed. According to the NCCN guidelines, PCs with no metastases can be divided into resectable, borderline resectable , and locally advanced cases. Patients with borderline resectable PC (BR-PC) and locally advanced PC (LA-PC) currently receive multimodal therapy before surgery. The goal of these neoadjuvant treatments, including chemotherapy and radiation therapy, is to ultimately reduce local recurrence after surgery in patients with BR-PC and further improve their survival time. Additionally, several recent studies have reported results on the prognosis when surgery is performed after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in patients with LA-PC. In the patients with LA-PC, surgery technically difficult because of major vascular invasion before NACT. Therefore, this study investigated the clinical outcomes of patients with LA-PC who underwent surgery after NACT. Additionally, the investigators evaluated factors affecting the prognosis related to survival after surgery in patients with LA-PC.
