Abstract

AbstractAimWe evaluated the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with intensity‐modulated radiotherapy (NAC‐IMRT) in patients with borderline‐resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC).MethodsBRPC patients were treated with IMRT (45 Gy/15fr) combined with two courses of S‐1 (40 mg/m2 bid) before surgery. Outcomes after NAC‐IMRT, surgery, and survival were then evaluated. This single‐center retrospective study assessed 26 consecutive patients.ResultsTwenty‐six patients (BR‐PV: 7, BR‐A: 19) with a median age of 73 years were enrolled from 2016 to 2021. Ten (38%) patients were 75‐years‐old and above. Twenty‐three patients completed NAC‐IMRT treatment. The median reductions in tumor size and cancer antigen 19‐9 level were 13.6% and 69%, respectively. All 26 patients underwent resection within a median time of 71 days after NAC‐IMRT initiation. R0 resection was achieved in 24 patients (92%). The median overall survival (OS) was 28.0 months, and the 1‐ and 3‐year OS rates were 100% and 34%, respectively. The median progression‐free survival (PFS) was 12.5 months, and the 1‐ and 3‐year PFS rates were 50% and 32%, respectively. No significant differences were observed in OS between the patients under and over the age of 75 (29 vs. 20 months, p = 0.86). The 12 patients who completed NAC‐IMRT, resection, and subsequent adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) exhibited a 3‐year survival rate of 73%, which was significantly better than that of the patients who did not receive or complete AC (median OS, not reached vs. 19 months, p < 0.001).ConclusionNAC‐IMRT showed outstanding clinical efficacy with acceptable tolerability in patients with BRPC, including geriatric patients.
