ABSTRACT
Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX and gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel (GemNP) therapies are increasingly used to treat patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, limited data are available on their clinicopathologic prognosticators. We examined the clinicopathologic factors and survival of 213 PDAC patients who received FOLFIRINOX with 71 patients who received GemNP. The FOLFIRINOX group was younger (p < 0.01) and had a higher rate of radiation (p = 0.049), higher rate of borderline resectable and locally advanced disease (p < 0.001), higher rate of Group 1 response (p = 0.045) and lower ypN stage (p = 0.03) than the GemNP group. Within FOLFIRINOX group, radiation was associated with decreased lymph node metastasis (p = 0.01) and lower ypN stage (p = 0.01). The tumor response group, ypT, ypN, LVI and PNI, correlated significantly with both DFS and OS (p < 0.05). Patients with the ypT0/T1a/T1b tumor had better DFS (p = 0.04) and OS (p = 0.03) than those with ypT1c tumor. In multivariate analysis, the tumor response group and ypN were independently prognostic factors for DFS and OS (p < 0.05). Our study demonstrated that the FOLFIRINOX group was younger and had a better pathologic response than the GemNP group and that the tumor response group, ypN, ypT, LVI and PNI, are significant prognostic factors for survival in these patients. Our results also suggest that the tumor size of 1.0 cm is a better cut off for ypT2. Our study highlights the importance of systemic pathologic examination and the reporting of post-treatment pancreatectomies.
