About this study

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?

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.

Read the 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.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Postoperative Complications, run by Asan Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

oncologic outcome (time frame: 3 - 5 years after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Jun 2023.
