Abstract:
374 Background: While multimodality therapy for borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma (BPA) is advocated, treatment regimens vary by institution without a standardized approach supported by prospective randomized data. We implemented a multidisciplinary multimodality clinical pathway (CP) for the management of BPA and examined outcomes to investigate optimal therapy. Methods: From January 1, 2006, to December 31, 2013, BPA cases as defined by the NCCN and AHPBA consensus guidelines were managed prospectively along CP. Resection rates, margin status, pathologic response, and overall survival were retrospectively examined. Standard statistical and survival analysis were used. Results: 121 patients were classified as BPA and 101 entered the CP. The neoadjuvant chemoradiation (NT) completion rate was 93.1%. Of those who entered the CP, 55 patients (54.5%) underwent pancreatectomy. R0, R1 and R2 margin rates were 96.3%, 3.7% and 0%, respectively. Of the 55 patients who underwent resection, 22 (40%) required vascular reconstruction, with R0, R1 and R2 margin rates of 95.2%, 4.8%, and 0%, respectively. Pathologic response to treatment was found in 70.8%, with a complete response rate of 15.9%. Median overall survival in the resected group versus the non-resected group was 34.2 months versus 14.7 months, p 〈 0.001. Conclusions: Our series represents one of the largest reports of BPA in the literature and implementation of our CP resulted in a high NT completion rate and pancreatectomy with negative margin rate. Although 41.4% of cases were not resectable after NT, there was a high rate of negative margin resection with 〉 70% pathologic response rate and a favorable median survival.
