Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy Versus Upfront Surgery for Resectable and Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer: Long-Term Results of the Dutch Randomized PREOPANC Trial

Eva Versteijne et al.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy on the survival of patients with resectable and borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. The results demonstrate that neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy improves overall survival compared to upfront surgery in these patients.

Neoadjuvant gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel for borderline resectable pancreatic cancers: Intention-to-treat analysis compared with upfront surgery

Yosuke Inoue et al.

Summary: The study compared the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel in borderline resectable pancreatic cancer patients to conventional upfront surgery, finding significant benefits in terms of surgical resection rate, R0 resection rate, and 3-year overall survival rate in the neoadjuvant therapy group.

Summary: Every year, the American Cancer Society projects the numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in the United States, with the latest data showing a significant decline in lung cancer mortality, while prostate cancer mortality has plateaued and breast and colorectal cancer mortality have slowed. Improvements in treatment have accelerated progress against lung cancer, leading to a record drop in overall cancer mortality.

Efficacy of Perioperative Chemotherapy for Resectable Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma A Phase 2 Randomized Clinical Trial

Davendra P. S. Sohal et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the 2-year overall survival rate of perioperative chemotherapy for resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA), but did not show significant improvement compared to historical data. The 2-year overall survival rates were 47% and 48% for the two treatment arms, demonstrating adequate safety and high resectability rates with perioperative chemotherapy, as well as challenges in quality control for resectability criteria.

Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma, Version 2.2021

Margaret A. Tempero et al.

Summary: Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States, with a major challenge being advanced disease at diagnosis. While survival rates have not significantly changed, newer treatments, including targeted therapies, offer hope for patients. The manuscript focuses on systemic therapy approaches for locally advanced and metastatic disease.
