Abstract:Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive disease characterized by chronic inflammation and a tolerogenic immune response. The granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)–neutrophil axis promotes oncogenesis and progression of PDAC. Despite frequent use of recombinant G-CSF in the management and prevention of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, its impact on oncologic outcomes of patients with resected PDAC is unclear. Patients and Methods: This cohort study assessing the impact of G… Show more
