Abstract

Pancreatic carcinoma (PC) is an aggressive malignancy and the 4th cause of all cancer deaths worldwide. More than 30% of patients with PC are unresectable because of the local extension with a median overall survival (OS) of less than one year. Folfirinox (FFX) is superior to gemcitabine in the treatment of metastatic PC, in terms of OS and progression-free survival (PFS) but standard of care remains gemcitabine (gem) for LAPC.
