Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE (S) Completion pancreatectomy (C.P.) is one acceptable treatment of choice in clinical scenarios such as management of post-pancreatectomy complications and recurrence in the pancreatic remnant. Studies referring to completion pancreatectomy as a distinct operation are limited, without emphasizing at the operation itself, rather reporting completion pancreatectomy as a possible option for treatment of various diseases. The identification of indications of CP in various pathologies and the clinical outcomes are therefore mandatory. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed in the Pubmed and Scopus Databases (February 2020),guided by the PRISMA protocol, for all studies reporting CP as a surgical procedure with reference at indications for performing it combined with postoperative morbidity and/or mortality. RESULTS Out of 1647 studies, 32 studies from 10 countries with 2775 patients in total, of whom 561 (20.2%) CPs met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. Inclusion year ranged from 1964 to 2018 and were published from 1992 until 2019. 17 studies with a total number of 249 CPs were performed for post-pancreatectomy complications. Mortality rate was 44.5% (111 out of 249). Morbidity rate was (72.6%). 12 studies with 225 CPs were performed for isolated local recurrence after initial resection with a morbidity rate of 21.5% and 0% mortality rate in the early postoperative period. Two studies with a total number of 12 patients reported CP as a treatment option for recurrent neuroendocrine neoplasms. The mortality in those studies was 8% (1/12) and the mean morbidity rate was 58.3% (7/12). Finally, CP for refractory chronic pancreatitis was presented in one study with morbidity and mortality rates of 19% and 0%, respectively. CONCLUSION Completion pancreatectomy is a distinct treatment option for various pathologies. Morbidity and mortality rates depend on the indications of performing CP, the status performance of the patients and whether the operation is performed electively or urgently.

Pedrazzoli S. Currently Debated Topics on Surgical Treatment of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma: A Narrative Review on Surgical Treatment of Borderline Resectable, Locally Advanced, and Synchronous or Metachronous Oligometastatic Tumor. J Clin Med 2023; 12:6461. [PMID: 37892599 PMCID: PMC10607532 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12206461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previously considered inoperable patients (borderline resectable, locally advanced, synchronous oligometastatic or metachronous pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC)) are starting to become resectable thanks to advances in chemo/radiotherapy and the reduction in operative mortality. METHODS This narrative review presents a chosen literature selection, giving a picture of the current state of treatment of these patients. RESULTS Neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) is generally recognized as the treatment of choice before surgery. However, despite the increased efficacy, the best pathological response is still limited to 10.9-27.9% of patients. There are still limited data on the selection of possible NAT responders and how to diagnose non-responders early. Multidetector computed tomography has high sensitivity and low specificity in evaluating resectability after NAT, limiting the resection rate of resectable patients. Ca 19-9 and Positron emission tomography are giving promising results. The prediction of early recurrence after a radical resection of synchronous or metachronous metastatic PDAC, thus identifying patients with poor prognosis and saving them from a resection of little benefit, is still ongoing, although some promising data are available. CONCLUSION In conclusion, high-level evidence demonstrating the benefit of the surgical treatment of such patients is still lacking and should not be performed outside of high-volume centers with interdisciplinary teams of surgeons and oncologists.

Impact of margin accentuation with intraoperative irreversible electroporation on local recurrence in resected pancreatic cancer. Surgery 2023; 173:581-589. [PMID: 36216618 PMCID: PMC9918678 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2022.07.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the rates of local recurrence and margin positivity in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer after pancreatectomy with or without irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation. METHODS Prospective data for preoperative stages IIB (borderline resectable) and III were evaluated, with 75 patients undergoing pancreatectomy with irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation compared to 71 patients who underwent pancreatectomy alone from March 2010 to November 2020. RESULTS Both irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation and pancreatectomy-alone groups were similar for body mass index, Charleston comorbidity index, and sex. The irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation group had significantly greater preoperative stage III (irreversible electroporation 83% vs pancreatectomy alone 51%; P = .0001), with similar tumor location (head 64% vs 72%) and tumor size (median 2.9 vs 2.8). Neoadjuvant/induction chemotherapy and prior radiation therapy was similar in both groups (irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation 89% vs 72%). Surgical therapy included a greater percentage of pancreaticoduodenectomy in the pancreatectomy-alone group. Despite greater stage and greater percentage of margin positivity (irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation 27% vs 20%; P = not significant), rates of local recurrence were similar. The mean disease-free interval for local recurrence from time of diagnosis was similar (irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation 15.8 vs 16.5 pancreatectomy alone; P = not significant) and time of treatment (irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation 9.4 vs 10.5 months; P = not significant). Overall survival was improved with the irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation group, with a mean of 34.2 months versus 27.9 months in the pancreatectomy-alone group. CONCLUSION Irreversible electroporation with margin accentuation is safe and effective in stages IIB and III pancreatic adenocarcinomas that are technically resectable. Despite higher margin positivity rates, the time to local recurrence and the effects of recurrence were the same in the pancreatectomy-alone group.

Prediction of Recurrence Pattern of Pancreatic Cancer Post-Pancreatic Surgery Using Histology-Based Supervised Machine Learning Algorithms: A Single-Center Retrospective Study. Ann Surg Oncol 2022; 29:10.1245/s10434-022-11471-x.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with pancreatic cancer (PC) have poor prognosis and a high incidence of recurrence. Since further treatment is applicable for specific recurrent events, it is important to predict recurrence patterns after surgery. This study aimed to identify and predict early and late recurrence patterns of PC using a histology-based machine learning model. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients who underwent upfront curative surgery for PC between 2001 and 2014 were included. The timing of recurrence and prognosis of each first recurrence site were examined. A histology-based supervised machine learning method, which combined convolutional neural networks and random forest, was used to predict the recurrence and respective sites of metastasis. Accuracy was evaluated using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). RESULTS In total, 524 patients were included. Recurrence in the liver accounted for 47.8% of all recurrence events in the first year after surgery. Meanwhile, recurrence in the lung occurred later and could become apparent more than 5 years post-surgery, with indications for further surgery. In terms of substantial distant organ metastases, liver and lung metastases were identified as representative early and late recurrence events. The predictive AUCs of the machine learning model for training and test data were 1.000 and 0.861, respectively, and for predicting nonrecurrence were 1.000 for both. CONCLUSIONS We identified the liver and lung as early and late recurrence sites, which could be distinguished with high probability using a machine learning model. Prediction of recurrence sites using this model may be useful for further treatment of patients with PC.

Pancreatology 2021; 21:1349-1355. [PMID: 34404600 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2021.08.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2021] [Revised: 07/28/2021] [Accepted: 08/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is an emerging treatment for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) which in some cohorts has been associated with severe complications. Additionally, re-resection of isolated local recurrence (ILR) after pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) can improve survival. We investigated safety, feasibility and oncologic outcomes in the first report on open IRE for unresectable ILR of PDAC in a staged surgical approach. METHODS Records of the prospectively documented institutional database were screened for patients undergoing laparotomy in IRE-standby due to questionable resectability. Endpoints were morbidity, mortality and overall (OS) and progression free survival (PFS). Data of LAPC and ILR were compared statistically for safety and feasibility analysis. RESULTS Intraoperative IRE was performed in 11 ILR and 14 LAPC. Six (54.5%) ILR and 10 (71.4%) LAPC patients had postoperative complications, type and frequency did not differ significantly. Major complications occurred in one ILR and two LAPC patients. Median OS was 20.0 months (95% CI: 2.7-37.3) after IRE for ILR and 28 (17.4-38.6) for LAPC. Median PFS after IRE was seven months for both ILR (4.1-9.9; n = 9) and LAPC (2.3-11.7; n = 13). CONCLUSION Open IRE for unresectable ILR was associated with acceptable perioperative risk. In this small, highly selected subset of patients with limited therapeutic options ancillary treatment with IRE might improve survival. Randomized treatment studies are required to establish the definitive role of IRE as compared to palliative standards of care in unresectable recurrence of PDAC and inconvertible LAPC.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the survival benefits of curative-intent treatment (CIT, including surgery or ablation) for recurrent pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) depending on the recurrence type and compared the survival outcomes with other treatment modalities. Background The treatment for recurrent PDAC is mostly chemotherapy or best supportive care (BSC). Still, the role of CIT for recurrent PDAC is not well established. Methods PDAC patients who underwent pancreatectomy between 2004 and 2019 were included. Recurrences were categorized as locoregional (LR), distant, or disseminated. Recurrent PDAC management was classified as CIT, chemotherapy ± radiation therapy (CTX ± RTX), or BSC. The survival after recurrence (SAR) rate was measured from the first day of recurrence to the date of death or last follow-up. Results Two hundred eighteen patients had recurrent PDAC and were analyzed (27 CIT, 128 CTX ± RTX, 63 BSC). The 1-, 3-, and 5-year SAR rates were 65.4%, 11.5%, and 11.5% for CIT, 42.1%, 4.0%, and 0% for CTX ± RTX, and 15.9%, 1.6%, and 0% for BSC, respectively. Subgroup analysis indicated the SAR rate was significantly better in the CIT group than in the CTX ± RTX and BSC groups in LR type (P = 0.027) and distant type (P < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, the albumin level at recurrence (hazard ratio, 2.14; 95% confidence interval, 1.15-18.3, P = 0.038) and operation time of the second operation (hazard ratio, 0.98; 95% confidence interval, 0.97-0.99, P = 0.021) were associated with a favorable prognosis of SAR in the CIT group. Conclusions CIT should be considered in recurrent PDAC for LR and distant metastases in selected patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis on the outcome of surgical treatment for isolated local recurrence of pancreatic cancer. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. RESULTS Six studies concerning 431 patients with recurrent pancreatic cancer met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis: 176 underwent redo surgery, and 255 received non-surgical treatments. Overall survival and post-recurrence survival were significantly longer in the re-resected group (ratio of means (ROM) 1.99; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.54-2.56, I2 = 75.89%, p = 0.006, and ROM = 2.05; 95% CI, 1.48-2.83, I2 = 76.39%, p = 0.002, respectively) with a median overall survival benefit of 28.7 months (mean difference (MD) 28.7; 95% CI, 10.3-47.0, I2 = 89.27%, p < 0.001) and median survival benefit of 15.2 months after re-resection (MD 15.2; 95% CI, 8.6-21.8, I2 = 58.22%, p = 0.048). CONCLUSION Resection of isolated pancreatic cancer recurrences is safe and feasible and may offer a survival benefit. Selection of patients and assessment of time and site of recurrence are mandatory.

Repeated Pancreatectomy for Isolated Local Recurrence in the Remnant Pancreas Following Radical Pancreatectomy for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma: A Pooled Analysis. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9123945. [PMID: 33291378 PMCID: PMC7762026 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9123945] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2020] [Revised: 11/29/2020] [Accepted: 12/01/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The mainstream treatment for recurrent pancreatic cancer is potent chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy. However, recent clinical investigations have suggested a potential oncologic role of local resection of recurrent pancreatic cancer. This systemic review with a pooled analysis aimed to assess the potential role of local repeated pancreatectomy with respect to the survival outcomes for patients with recurrent pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in the remnant pancreas. The PubMed database was searched, and 15 articles reporting on repeated pancreatectomy for local recurrence of PDAC in the remnant pancreas were identified. The pooled individual data were examined for the clinical outcomes of repeated pancreatectomy for recurrent PDAC. The survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan–Meier method. In the pooled analysis, the mean time interval from initial pancreatectomy to repeated pancreatectomy was 41.3 months (standard deviation (SD), 29.09 months). Completion total pancreatectomy was most commonly performed as repeated pancreatectomy (46 patients, 92.0%), and partial pancreatic resection was performed for only 4 (10.3%) patients. Twenty (40.9%) patients received postoperative chemotherapy following repeated pancreatectomy. The median overall survival was 60 months (95% confidential interval (CI): 45.99–74.01) after repeated pancreatectomy for isolated local recurrence in the remnant pancreas. Overall survival was markedly longer considering the timing of the initial pancreatectomy for pancreatic cancer (median, 107 months (95% CI: 80.37–133.62). The time interval between the initial and subsequent repeated pancreatectomy for pancreatic cancer was not associated with long-term oncologic outcomes (p = 0.254). Repeated pancreatectomy cannot completely replace adjuvant chemotherapy but should be considered for patients with isolated local recurrent PDAC in the remnant pancreas.

Comparing prognostic factors of Glut-1 expression and maximum standardized uptake value by FDG-PET in patients with resectable pancreatic cancer. Pancreatology 2020; 20:1205-1212. [PMID: 32819845 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2020.07.407] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2020] [Revised: 07/09/2020] [Accepted: 07/29/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to assess the prognostic values of preoperative maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of primary pancreatic tumors and Glut-1 expression in patients with resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (R-PDAC), and to investigate whether Glut-1 expression is more effective than SUVmax in predicting survival in patients with R-PDAC. METHODS We investigated 101 R-PDAC patients who underwent pancreatectomy for pancreatic cancer treatment. SUVmax analyzed through 18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT), and Glut-1 expression, were assessed for predicting the prognosis of patients with R-PDAC. RESULTS In patients with R-PDAC, the high SUVmax group (≥4.25) had significantly shorter overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) than the low SUVmax group (<4.25). Surprisingly, Glut-1 expression was not significantly correlated with SUVmax. Moreover, the high Glut-1 expression group, which was related to higher levels of CA 19-9, had significantly shorter OS and DFS than the low Glut-1 expression group. Furthermore, among the high SUVmax group, OS and DFS were significantly shorter in the high Glut-1 expression group. Multivariate analyses revealed that Glut-1 overexpression was an independent prognostic factor in patients with R-PDAC. Glut-1 knockdown also induced cell cycle arrest in PDAC cells in vitro. CONCLUSIONS The study determined that Glut-1 overexpression is a more powerful prognostic factor than SUVmax for predicting OS and higher risk of recurrence in R-PDAC patients. Glut-1 overexpression is also more likely to be associated with malignant activity in PDAC patients.

Long-term outcomes and significance of preoperative lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio as a prognostic indicator in patients with invasive pancreatic neoplasms after repeat pancreatectomy. BMC Cancer 2020; 20:111. [PMID: 32041563 PMCID: PMC7011356 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-020-6602-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2019] [Accepted: 02/04/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Invasive pancreatic neoplasms have a high propensity for recurrence even after curative resection. Recently, patients who underwent pancreatectomy have an opportunity of undergoing secondary pancreatic resection, so-called “repeat pancreatectomy” to achieve curative operation and prolong their survival. We evaluated the long-term clinical outcomes and identified the prognostic factors, including systemic inflammation markers and the lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) of patients who underwent repeat pancreatectomy for invasive pancreatic tumors. Methods Twenty-eight consecutive patients with invasive pancreatic neoplasms (22 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas, 2 pancreatic acinar cell carcinomas, and 4 invasive intra-papillary mucinous carcinomas) with isolated local recurrence only in the remnant pancreas were analyzed retrospectively. To identify factors for the selection of optimal patients who should undergo repeat pancreatectomy, perioperative clinical parameters were analyzed by Cox proportional regression models. Results Of 28 patients, 12 patients experienced recurrence within 3 years after repeat pancreatectomy. Kaplan–Meier analysis showed that the median cancer-specific overall survival time of patients with invasive pancreatic neoplasms was 61 months, showing favorable outcomes. High preoperative LMR (LMR ≥ 3.3) (p = 0.022), no portal vein resection (p = 0.021), no arterial resection (p = 0.037), and pathological lymph node negative (p = 0.0057) were identified as favorable prognostic parameters on univariate analysis, and LMR ≥ 3.3 (p = 0.0005), and pathological lymph node negative (p = 0.018) on multivariate analysis. Conclusions Preoperative LMR is potentially a good indicator for selecting suitable patients to undergo repeat pancreatectomy in patients with isolated local recurrence of invasive pancreatic neoplasms.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Initial recurrence mapping of resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) could help in stratifying patient subpopulations for optimal postoperative follow-up. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the initial recurrence patterns of PDAC and to correlate them with clinicopathological factors.
Methods
MEDLINE and Web of Science databases were searched systematically for studies reporting first recurrence patterns after PDAC resection. Data were extracted from the studies selected for inclusion. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95 per cent confidence intervals were calculated to determine the clinicopathological factors related to the recurrence sites. The weighted average of median overall survival was calculated.
Results
Eighty-nine studies with 17 313 patients undergoing PDAC resection were included. The weighted median rates of initial recurrence were 20·8 per cent for locoregional sites, 26·5 per cent for liver, 11·4 per cent for lung and 13·5 per cent for peritoneal dissemination. The weighted median overall survival times were 19·8 months for locoregional recurrence, 15·0 months for liver recurrence, 30·4 months for lung recurrence and 14·1 months for peritoneal dissemination. Meta-analysis revealed that R1 (direct) resection (OR 2·21, 95 per cent c.i. 1·12 to 4·35), perineural invasion (OR 5·19, 2·79 to 9·64) and positive peritoneal lavage cytology (OR 5·29, 3·03 to 9·25) were significantly associated with peritoneal dissemination as initial recurrence site. Low grade of tumour differentiation was significantly associated with liver recurrence (OR 4·15, 1·71 to 10·07).
Conclusion
Risk factors for recurrence patterns after surgery could be considered for specific surveillance and treatments for patients with pancreatic cancer.

High-risk lesions in the remnant pancreas: fate of the remnant pancreas after pancreatic resection for pancreatic cancer and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms. Surg Today 2019; 50:832-840.

Abstract
Progress in diagnostic modalities, surgical procedures, and multidisciplinary treatment for pancreatic diseases has increased the number of long-term survivors after pancreatic resection. Several reports have focused on high-risk lesions (HRLs), including high-grade pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, high-grade intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN), and IPMN with an associated invasive carcinoma, in the remnant pancreas after partial pancreatic resection for pancreatic cancer or IPMN. The etiology of HRLs in the remnant pancreas is thought to be either isolated local recurrence of the initial lesion in the remnant pancreas or a newly developed primary lesion. Although it is difficult to distinguish between local recurrence and a new primary lesion, comparison of genetic alterations between two lesions may help with this distinction. Early detection of HRLs in the remnant pancreas may improve the prognosis of patients, and several investigators have proposed predictive factors for HRLs in the remnant pancreas after partial pancreatic resection for pancreatic cancer or IPMN. The reported short- and long-term outcomes of surgical resection of HRLs in the remnant pancreas are relatively favorable. Life-long surveillance of the remnant pancreas is recommended after partial pancreatic resection for pancreatic cancer or IPMN.

Surgery for Recurrent Pancreatic Cancer: Is It Effective? Cancers (Basel) 2019; 11:cancers11070991. [PMID: 31315222 PMCID: PMC6679234 DOI: 10.3390/cancers11070991] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2019] [Revised: 07/10/2019] [Accepted: 07/12/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Despite improvements to surgical procedures and novel combinations of drugs for adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapies for pancreatic adenocarcinoma, the recurrence rate after radical surgery is still high. Little is known about the role of surgery in the treatment of isolated recurrences of pancreatic cancer. The aim of this study was to review the current literature dealing with surgery for recurrent pancreatic cancer in order to examine its feasibility and effectiveness. An extensive literature review was conducted according to the 2009 Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and 14 articles dealing with re-resections for recurrent pancreatic adenocarcinoma were analyzed, focusing on the characteristics of the primary neoplasm and its recurrence, the surgical procedures used, and patient outcomes. Data were retrieved on a total of 301 patients. The interval between surgery for primary pancreatic cancer and the detection of a recurrence ranged from 2 to 120 months. The recurrence was local or regional in 230 patients, and distant in 71. The median overall survival was 68.9 months (range 3–152) after resection of the primary tumor, and 26.0 months (range 0–112) after surgery for recurrent disease. The disease-free interval after the resection of recurrences was 14.2 months (range 4–29). Although data analysis was performed on a heterogeneous and limited number of patients, some of these may benefit from surgery for isolated recurrence of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Further studies are needed to identify these cases.

Proton Radiotherapy for Isolated Local Recurrence of Primary Resected Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma. Ann Surg Oncol 2019; 26:2587-2594. [PMID: 31147994 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-019-07471-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal treatment for isolated local recurrence (ILR) of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) after surgical resection remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of proton radiotherapy (PRT) for ILR of PDAC after surgery. METHODS The medical records of patients with ILR of PDAC after surgery who underwent proton beam therapy between 2011 and 2015 at Hyogo Ion Beam Medical Center were retrospectively studied. RESULTS The study analyzed 30 patients (14 women and 16 men) with a median age of 65 years (range 38-81 years) who had initially undergone pancreatoduodenectomy (n = 23) or distal pancreatectomy (n = 7) for their primary tumors. Upon ILR, PRT was administered with a median total cumulative dose of 67.5 gray equivalent (GyE) (range 50-67.5 GyE) using 19 to 25 fractions. For 25 patients, concurrent chemotherapy was administered using gemcitabine (n = 18) or S-1 (n = 7). Four patients (13.3%) experienced acute grade ≥ 3 gastrointestinal toxicities. After a median follow-up period of 17.6 months (range 2.1-50.4 months), 23 patients had experienced tumor progression and 10 had died. Nine patients (30%) experienced local tumor progression. The median overall, progression-free, and local progression-free survival rates were 26.1, 12.3, and 41.2 months, respectively. Pre-PRT serum levels of cancer antigen 19-9 higher than 100 U/mL and duke pancreatic monoclonal antigen type 2 higher than 150 U/mL were significantly associated with shorter progression-free survival rates. CONCLUSIONS Proton radiotherapy for ILR of PDAC after surgery is well tolerated and produces good locoregional control and should be considered for eligible patients.
