RESUMO

PURPOSE: To report the long-term outcome of a multicenter phase II study with FOLFIRINOX followed by stereotactic body radiotherapy (LAPC-1 trial) in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with histological confirmation of LAPC inoperable at diagnosis were enrolled. Induction therapy with 8 cycles of FOLFIRINOX was administered. If no disease progression was found after chemotherapy, patients received stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) at a total dose of 40 Gy in 5 fractions. RESULTS: In LAPC-1 trial, 50 patients were included, but due to disease progression in 11 patients under chemotherapy, 39 patients received stereotactic SBRT after FOLFIRINOX treatment. In whole population, the 1- and 3-year overall survival (OS) were 62% and 10%, respectively. Median follow-up was 13 months. The SBRT group had median OS of 18 months (95% CI 13.2-21.5) versus 5 months (95% CI 4.1-6.7) in non-SBRT group (p<0.001). After chemoradiotherapy, seven patients underwent surgery achieving a radical resection. Patients who underwent surgery had a 3-years OS of 43% compared to 6.5% in the unresected group (p=0.03). Four patients developed grade ≥ 3 adverse events during SBRT. CONCLUSIONS: Long-term survival has been found in patients with LAPC underwent FOLFIRINOX followed by SBRT. This approach increased the probability of a radical surgery. The resected patients achieved a significant better survival compared to unresected group.

RESUMO

Hemosuccus Pancreaticus (HP) is a very rare upper gastro-intestinal haemorrhagic event whose causes can be aneurismal lesions, acute and chronic pancreatic inflammatory conditions, and pancreatic masses. We present 2 cases of patients who underwent stereotactic radiotherapy for pancreatic lesions who manifested signs of HP after treatment. Two male patients were diagnosed with an inoperable locally advanced pancreatic cancer and underwent 8 cycles of chemotherapy followed by stereotactic radiotherapy to the pancreatic lesion delivering 40Gy in 8 fractions. The first patient complained of melena and had a necrotic tumoural mass with a new aneurysmal bulge 3 months after the SBRT. A stent was placed in the aneurysmal lesion, however, a few days later, the bleeding occurred again and the patient died. The other patient had local tumour progression 12 months after SBRT with a pancreatic mass eroding the near vessels. He developed a fast and massive bleeding. HP may occur after SBRT. Inflammation of the tumour mass can lead to erosion of the vessels with subsequent bleeding. The radiotherapy treatment may have contributed to the HP genesis. The treatment is complex and consists of the placement of a stent or surgery.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) is found in 35% of patients with pancreatic cancer. However, these patients often have occult metastatic disease. Patients with occult metastases are unlikely to benefit from locoregional treatments. This study evaluated the yield of occult metastases during staging laparoscopy in patients with LAPC. METHODS: Between January 2013 and January 2017 all patients with LAPC underwent a staging laparoscopy after a recent tri-phasic CT-scan of the chest and abdomen. Data were retrospectively reviewed from a prospectively maintained database. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to predict metastasis found at laparoscopy. RESULTS: A total of 91 (41% male, median age 64 years) LAPC patients were included. The median time between CT-scan and staging laparoscopy was 21 days. During staging laparoscopy metastases were found in 17 patients (19%, 95% CI: 12%-28%). Seven (8%) patients had liver-only, 9 (10%) patients peritoneal-only, and 1 (1%) patient both liver and peritoneal metastases. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that CEA (OR 1.056, 95% CI 1.007-1.107, p = 0.02) was the only preoperative predictor for occult metastases. In a multivariable logistic regression analysis of the preoperative risk factors again only CEA was an independent predictor for occult metastatic disease (p = 0.03). Patients with a CEA above 5 µg/L had a risk of occult metastasis of 91%. FOLFIRINOX was given to 69 (76%) of the patients with a median number of cycles of 8. Subsequent radiotherapy was given to 44 (48%) patients after the FOLFIRINOX treatment. Six (14%) patients underwent a resection after FOLFIRINOX and radiotherapy. The overall 1-year survival was 53% in patients without occult metastasis versus 29% with occult metastasis (p = 0.11). The 1-year OS for patients that completed FOLFIRINOX and radiotherapy was 84%. CONCLUSION: The yield of staging laparoscopy for occult intrahepatic or peritoneal metastases in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer was 19%. Staging laparoscopy is recomended for patients with LAPC for accurate staging to determine optimal treatment.
