  • Ages Up to 79 years

  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: This study retrospectively included 264 pancreatic head cancer patients who underwent surgery after neoadjuvant treatment between January 2012 and December 2022 at Seoul National University Hospital in Korea. Among 264 patients, we included 113 patients with resectable and borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma with venous involvement who responded to NAT and underwent curative PD.

Who may be able to join

  • Pancreatic head cancer patients who underwent surgery after neoadjuvant treatment between January 2012 and December 2022 at Seoul National University Hospital

Who cannot join

  • Resectable pancreatic cancer without portal/superior mesenteric vein invasion
  • Cancer aggravation after neoadjuvant treatment
  • Portal/superior mesenteric vein encasing and narrowing after neoadjuvant treatment
  • Patients who underwent palliative surgery
  • Non-pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients

About this study

  1. There is a lack of evidence on the need to perform portal/superior mesenteric vein (PV/SMV) resection routinely in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients with venous involvement who responded to neoadjuvant treatment (NAT).
  2. There is no significant differences in R0 rate, 5-year overall survival and recurrence-free survival between the PV/SMV preservation (PVP) group and PV/SMV resection (PVR) group.
  3. PVP group showed significantly better 5-year PV/SMV stenosis free survival than the PVR group.
  4. We propose that if dissection is possible and there is a high likelihood of achieving R0 resection after NAT, routine PVR may be unnecessary in PDAC patients with venous involvement.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pancreatic Head Cancer Patients Who Underwent Surgery After Neoadjuvant Treatment, run by Seoul National University Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

5-year overall survival (time frame: assessed up to 60months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Apr 2024.
