Management of resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma continues to present a challenge due to a paucity of high-quality randomized studies. Administration of adjuvant chemotherapy is widely accepted due to the high risk of systemic spread associated with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, but the role of radiation therapy is less clear. This paper reviews literature associated with resectable pancreatic cancer to include prognostic factors to aid in the selection of patients appropriate for adjuvant therapies. The American College of Radiology Appropriateness Criteria are evidence-based guidelines for specific clinical conditions that are reviewed annually by a multidisciplinary expert panel. The guideline development and revision include an extensive analysis of current medical literature from peer reviewed journals and the application of well-established methodologies (RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation or GRADE) to rate the appropriateness of imaging and treatment procedures for specific clinical scenarios. In those instances where evidence is lacking or equivocal, expert opinion may supplement the available evidence to recommend imaging or treatment.
由于高质量随机研究较少,可切除性胰腺腺癌的管理仍然是一项挑战。鉴于胰腺腺癌存在较高的全身扩散风险,辅助化疗的应用已被广泛接受,但放射治疗的作用尚不太明确。本文回顾了与可切除性胰腺癌相关的文献,包括预后因素,以帮助选择适合辅助治疗的患者。美国放射学会适宜性标准是针对特定临床情况的循证指南,每年由多学科专家小组进行审查。指南的制定和修订包括对同行评审期刊上的当前医学文献进行广泛分析,并应用成熟的方法(兰德/加州大学洛杉矶分校适宜性方法以及推荐分级评估、制定和评价或GRADE)来评估特定临床场景下成像和治疗程序的适宜性。在缺乏证据或证据不明确的情况下,专家意见可能会补充现有证据以推荐成像或治疗方法。
