To compare the efficacy of full-dose gemcitabine-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (FG-CCRT) and conventional 5-fluorouracil CCRT (5FU-CCRT) for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC).
109 LAPC cases treated with FG-CCRT (n = 89) or 5FU-CCRT (n = 20) were reviewed retrospectively. The FG-CCRT group was composed of a full-dose gemcitabine monotherapy (1,000 mg/m(2)) arm and a combination therapy with cisplatin (70 mg/m(2)) arm. The 5FU-CCRT group used a radiosensitizing dose of 5-FU (500 mg/m(2)) plus leucovorin (20 mg/m(2)). Concurrent radiotherapy was targeted at the tumor with a 5-mm margin without lymph node irradiation.
Objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) was significantly higher in the FG-CCRT group (ORR: 32.6 vs. 5%, p = 0.013; DCR: 79.8 vs. 50.0%, p = 0.006). FG-CCRT showed remarkable superiority to 5FU-CCRT for suppressing distant metastasis (18.0 vs. 45.0%, p = 0.017). Neutropenia (34.8 vs. 10%, p = 0.032) and thrombocytopenia (21.3 vs. 0.0%, p = 0.021) were more frequent in the FG-CCRT group as originally expected. When dividing the FG-CCRT group to gemcitabine monotherapy (GEM) and gemcitabine plus cisplatin, toxicities of the GEM subgroup were not different than those of the 5FU-CCRT group.
FG-CCRT, especially full-dose gemcitabine monotherapy-based CCRT was more effective for the initial control of LAPC than 5FU-CCRT, and also relatively safe.
比较全剂量吉西他滨同步放化疗(FG-CCRT)与传统5-氟尿嘧啶同步放化疗(5FU-CCRT)治疗局部晚期胰腺癌(LAPC)的疗效。
回顾性分析109例接受FG-CCRT(n = 89)或5FU-CCRT(n = 20)治疗的LAPC患者。FG-CCRT组包括全剂量吉西他滨单药治疗(1000 mg/m²)组和顺铂(70 mg/m²)联合治疗组。5FU-CCRT组采用5-氟尿嘧啶放射增敏剂量(500 mg/m²)加亚叶酸钙(20 mg/m²)。同步放疗针对肿瘤,外放5 mm边界,不进行淋巴结照射。
FG-CCRT组的客观缓解率(ORR)和疾病控制率(DCR)显著更高(ORR:32.6%对5%,p = 0.013;DCR:79.8%对50.0%,p = 0.006)。FG-CCRT在抑制远处转移方面显示出优于5FU-CCRT的显著优势(18.0%对45.0%,p = 0.017)。正如最初预期的那样,FG-CCRT组中性粒细胞减少(34.8%对10%,p = 0.032)和血小板减少(21.3%对0.0%,p = 0.021)更为常见。将FG-CCRT组分为吉西他滨单药治疗(GEM)组和吉西他滨加顺铂组时,GEM亚组的毒性与5FU-CCRT组无差异。
FG-CCRT,尤其是基于全剂量吉西他滨单药治疗的CCRT,在LAPC的初始控制方面比5FU-CCRT更有效,且相对安全。
