Résumé
Neoadjuvant treatment (NAT) is debated for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC). This retrospective study assessed the impact of NAT on R0 rate and survival for BRPC patients in comparison with upfront surgery (US). Between 2010 and 2017 patient records for all consecutive patients treated for BRPC according to NCCN 2017 were reviewed. The endpoints analysed were R0 rate, recurrence-free-survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). Seventy-nine patients were included: 63 (79.7%) patients received NAT and 16 (20.3%) were upfront operated. NAT consisted in FOLFIRINOX (median cycles: 5, range 4-8) followed by chemoradiation ( NAT permitted a high R0 rate with a 0- or 1-mm clearance margin and was associated with better RFS and OS for patients with BRPC.
