[A Case of Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Successfully Treated with Modified FOLFIRINOX and Concurrent Radiotherapy].

A 70-year-old man with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(cT4N1bM1, cStage Ⅳ)underwent chemotherapy with modified FOLFIRINOX without any severe adverse event to 20 cycles. In the middle of that, concurrent irradiation toward primary lesion(total dose, 43.2 Gy)was administered. Grade 1 adverse events include anemia, thrombocytopenia, hypoalbuminemia, hypokalemia, alkaline phosphatase increased, hypertension, peripheral sensory neuropathy, fatigue, anorexia and nausea. The relative dose intensities of oxaliplatin, irinotecan and fluorouracil at 6 months after beginning of treatment were 77.6, 84.0 and 88.3 percent, respectively. The total dose of administered oxaliplatin was 825 mg to the square meter. The primary lesion had been stable for the 20 cycles, although peritoneal dissemination had progressively increased in size. For 17 months, opioid was not necessary for the control of abdominal or back pain to the end of third-line treatment. Though safety or clinical benefits of modified FOLFIRINOX plus concurrent radiotherapy for metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma have not been reported, in this case, such treatment might contribute to prolong prognosis or prevent developing abdominal or back pain.
