Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX and FDR-Gemcitabine With Concurrent IMRT in Patients (NCT NCT01661088)

NCT ID: NCT01661088

Last Updated: 2019-11-13

Results Overview

To determine the frequency of achieving an R0 resection using a neoadjuvant regimen of FOLFIRINOX followed by IMRT concurrent with fixed dose rate (FDR)-gemcitabine in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. R0 resection indicates a microscopically margin-negative resection, in which no gross or microscopic tumor remains in the primary tumor bed.

Patients received FOLFIRINOX x 6 followed by IMRT concurrent with fixed dose rate (FDR)-gemcitabine (1g/m\^2) on days 1, 8, 22, 29. Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT): The prescribed dose was 50.0Gy in 2.0Gy per fraction. Patients without metastatic disease were offered surgical exploration.

The Percentage of Patients That Underwent an R0 Resection
52 percentage of patients

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: up to 2 years

To estimate progression-free survival as a function of time from study enrollment. Progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the LD (longest diameter) of the primary lesion or the appearance of one or more new lesions
