Brief Title: NeoFOL-R Trial (Perioperative Versus Adjuvnat FOLFIRINOX in Resectable Pancreatic Cancer)
Official Title: Efficacy of Perioperative Versus Adjuvant FOLFIRINOX in Resectable Pancreatic Cancer: an International Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial (NeoFOL-R Trial)
Study ID: NCT05529940
Brief Summary: Rationale: Adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery significantly improved the survival of PC patients, but there is a problem that only about 50% of patients start adjuvant chemotherapy after pancreatectomy. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy might control potential metastatic lesion which are not being detected in early diseases status and improve the R0 resection rate. In addition, it prevents futile surgery by selecting patients with rapid progression of disease. Furthermore, compared to chemotherapy administered after surgery, more patients can complete the planned chemotherapy schedule in neoadjuvant setting. Asians differ from Westerners not only in racial differences, but also in average size and body surface area. Accordingly, there is an urgent need for clinical studies on the dose, toxicity, dosing cycle, and efficacy of anticancer drugs that reflect actual clinical trials in Asian countries for Asians. There are still few studies worldwide that prospectively explored the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in resectable PC and the administration of neoadjuvant therapy in resectable PC depends on individual clinical judgment. Therefore, systematic and prospective clinical trials are essential to standardize treatment protocol in resectable PC. Obective: To investigate whether 6 cycles of preoperative mFOLFIRINOX - surgery - 6 cycles of postoperative mFOLFIRINOX improves overall survival by intention-to-treat compared to surgery followed by 12 cycles of postoperative mFOLFIRINOX. Study design: open-label, multicenter, randomized, phase 3 clinical trial Study population: Patients with resectable pancreatic cancer and ECOG performance 0 or 1. Intervention: Invervention arm : 6 cycles of neoadjuvant mFOLFIRINOX followed by surgical resection and 6 cycles of adjuvant mFOLFIRINOX Comparator arm : surgical resection followed by 12 cycles of adjuvant mFOLFIRINOX Primary endpoint: 2-year overall survival rate by intention-to-treat
