Summary

Ampullary adenocarcinoma (AAC) is a rare gastrointestinal cancer with varying survival rates, particularly the aggressive pancreatobiliary (PB) subtype. Adjuvant therapy benefits only PB and mixed subtype patients, while prospective studies are required for validation. A study proposes tailored adjuvant treatments (CAPOX for intestinal subtype, FOLFIRINOX for PB and mixed subtypes) based on histopathology to enhance survival, also exploring molecular sub-studies for deeper insights.

Conditions

  • Ampullary Adenocarcinoma

Interventions

DRUG

Folfirinox

Patients meeting the criteria of post-operative adenocarcinoma of the ampulla of Vater will be enrolled, with adjuvant chemotherapy commencing within 8 weeks of recovery from surgery. Those undergoing palliative intent surgery or palliative chemotherapy are ineligible for the ADAPTA study. The ADAPTA study's adjuvant chemotherapy involves 8-12 FOLFIRINOX cycles (Arm 2) repeated 2 weeks. Given patient outcomes, 8 cycles of FOLFIRINOX are deemed sufficient due to completion challenges in prior research. FOLFIRINOX regimen mirrors the modified version from the ACCORD/PRODIGE trial for metastatic pancreatic cancer. This trial adapts mFOLFIRINOX for standard practice.

DRUG

Capox

or 8 CAPOX cycles (Arm 1) every 3 weeks.
