ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Response to second-line (2L) neoadjuvant therapy for operable pancreatic cancer (PC) is understudied. This study examined carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) response to first-line (1L) and 2L chemotherapy.METHODS:
The study identified patients with operable PC and elevated CA19-9 (≥ 35 U/mL with total bilirubin < 2 mg/dL) who received 1L FOLFIRINOX (FFX). The patients were restaged after 2 months and based on response, received additional FFX or gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel (GnP) as part of total neoadjuvant therapy. Response was defined as a decrease in tumor size on computed tomography (CT) imaging or a decline in CA19-9 of 50% or more and preserved performance status.RESULTS:
For operable PC with an elevated CA19-9, 108 patients received 1L FFX. After 2 months of chemotherapy, the decision was made to continue FFX (FFX ≥ FFX) for 76 (70%) of the 108 patients and switch to GnP (FFX ≥ GnP)) for 32 (30%) of the patients. Of the 32 FFX ≥ GnP patients, 27 had no evidence of radiographic or biochemical (CA19-9) response to 1L FFX. Of these 27 patients, 26 (96%) demonstrated a response to 2L GnP. After 4 months of chemotherapy, 62 (82%) of the 76 FFX ≥ FFX patients had a CA19-9 response compared with 31 (97%) of the 32 FFX ≥ GnP patients (p = 0.04).CONCLUSIONS:
Lack of biochemical response to 2 months of 1L FFX may identify a subgroup of patients with a very high rate of response to 2L GnP, emphasizing the importance of assessing treatment response at 2-month intervals.
