Survival outcomes of patients with resectable pancreatic cancer treated with upfront surgery versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy: A retrospective tertiary care center experience.
Abstract:4623 Background: The role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for resectable pancreatic cancer (RPC) remains controversial. We sought to compare the outcomes of NAC with upfront surgery (UFS). Methods: The study retrospectively enrolled patients with RPC who had UFS or received neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX (FFX) or gemcitabine plus albumin-bound paclitaxel (GA). Between-group differences were assessed with T-test for continuous variables, and Chi-square / Fisher’s exact test for categorical variables. The overall sur… Show more
