BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant therapy has been increasingly adopted for resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in Japan following the Prep-02/JSAP-05 trial. However, real-world evidence regarding effectiveness and underlying pathological mechanisms remains limited. This retrospective study evaluated neoadjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine plus S-1 (NAC-GS) impacts on resectable PDAC patient oncological and pathological outcomes.
METHODS: Consecutive resectable PDAC patients treated with NAC-GS (n = 60) or upfront surgery (UFS) (n = 101) between 2013 and 2023 were retrospectively analyzed (total diagnosed during the study period, n = 186). An intention-to-treat principle assessed overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Propensity score matching using six baseline variables (1:1) minimized selection bias.
RESULTS: Fifty-four patients were included in each group. The NAC-GS group demonstrated significantly longer OS than the UFS group (hazard ratio [HR], 0.48; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.25-0.90; P = 0.023). Among resected cases, NAC-GS was associated with improved OS (HR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.20-0.90; P = 0.026). Pathologically, the NAC-GS group showed significantly lower lymph node stage and less lymphatic invasion. Pathological complete response was observed in 4.0% of NAC-GS patients.
DISCUSSION: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with GS was associated with prolonged survival in resectable PDAC, potentially through lymphatic spread suppression. Pathological complete response was rare but may represent a clinically meaningful benefit of neoadjuvant treatment in selected patients.
