Abstract

Although we are “winning the war against cancer,” pancreatic malignancies are expected to be the most common cause of cancer-related death by 2040. Several systemic therapies, such as oxaliplatin + irinotecan/fluorouracil/leucovorin (FOLFIRINOX) and gemcitabine + nab-paclitaxel, have shown activity in the adjuvant and neoadjuvant settings. The current NCCN Guidelines reflect the most up-to-date, evidence-based data relating to the evaluation and management of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. They were recently updated to recommend germline testing for any patient with pancreatic cancer and molecular analysis of any metastatic pancreatic tumor.
