Giovanni Marchegiani: Perioperative modified FOLFIRINOX for pancreas cancer
Giovanni Marchegiani, Pancreas Surgeon at The University of Padua, made the following post on X:
“Perioperative modified FOLFIRINOX for resectable pancreas cancer
- Non randomized trial 46 pts
- 72% underwent surgery
- 12 months PFS 67%
- Postoperative ctDNA positivity was strongly associated with recurrence.”
Syed A. Ahmad, Director at University of Cincinnati Cancer Center & Chief of Surgical Oncology at University of Cincinnati, retweeted the post, adding the following:
“Interesting results. Similar to our SWOG Cancer Research Network 1505 trial with % completing upfront tx, low % of adj, and getting surgery but sig longer mOS (37.2 v. 22.4 mo). Wonder if pts getting surgery off protocol and included in ITT affected results? Will need to read paper.”
