Abstract:
4625 Background: Gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel (NPG) is standard first-line therapy for metastatic pancreatic cancer (mPC), but the pivotal study did not include quality of life (QoL) analyses. Methods: The QOLIXANE-PARAGON study started as a prospective, non-interventional, multicenter study conducted in Germany and transitioned into a permanent registry for pancreatic cancer patients (pts) considering all types of treatments. This report focuses on the pts enrolled into the QOLIXANE portion of the study. Pts were recruited from 95 German centers. QoL was prospectively measured via EORTC-C30 questionnaires (prior to and every month thereafter): therapy and efficacy parameters were prospectively collected. QoL and efficacy endpoints were analyzed in the intention-to-treat population (ITT). The primary endpoint was the rate of pts without deterioration of QoL/Global Health Score (QoL/GHS) at 3 months. Results: 600 pts were enrolled. Mean GHS/QoL score at baseline was low and was 46.2 (SD 22.8). Median progression-free survival was 5.85 months (95% CI, 5.23 to 6.25). Median overall survival (OS) was 8.91 months (95% CI, 7.89 to 10.19). The KM-analysis showed that 61% and 41% of pts had maintained QoL/GHS after 3 and 6 months, respectively. Median time to deterioration of QoL/GHS was 4.68 months (95% CI, 4.04 to 5.59). Mean QoL/GHS improved from 46.1 (SD 22.7) at baseline to 52.8 (SD 21.3) after 6 months. In the QoL response analysis, 34.6%, 37.4% and 28% of evaluable pts had improved, stable and worse QoL/GHS after 3 months, respectively. In the Cox regression analysis, GHS/QoL scores strongly predicted survival with a HR of 0.86 (p 〈 0.0001). Conclusions: QoliXane the largest study on QoL of mPC. It shows that time to deterioration of QoL is short but that a relevant group of mPC in first line have improved or maintained QoL after 3 and 6 months and that QoL is a predictor of pts outcome.
