Popis: Standard adjuvant treatment for pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is gemcitabine [Gem(CONKO-001: Gem vs. placebo DFS:13.4 vs. 6.7 mo; P 0.001; OS:22.8 vs. 20.2 mo; P = 0.01)]. Addition of cisplatin (Cis) to Gem has resulted in increased PFS for advanced and metastatic disease, which may be predicted by low expression of excision repair cross-complementing group-1 (ERCC1), the key enzyme in nucleotide excision repair. This Phase II prospective trial assesses outcomes of patients treated with adjuvant Gem/Cis, stratifying results by tumor ERCC1 expression.Patients with resected PDAC were enrolled (2010-2013) and received Gem(1,000 mg/m(2) )/Cis(50 mg/m(2) ). Tumor ERCC1 expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry and dichotomized into low or high expression. Primary outcomes were recurrence-free and overall survival (RFS/OS).Of 22 pts, 16(73%) were Stage IIB, 5(23%) Stage IIA, and 1(4%) Stage IA. Grade 3/4 toxicity occurred in 13 pts (59%); neutropenia was most common (n = 9;41%). Median follow-up was 37.5 months. Median RFS was 16.7 mo; OS was 35.5 mo. Low ERCC1 (n = 15;75%) compared to high ERCC1 (n = 5;25%) was not associated with improved RFS (12.4 vs. 16.7 mo; P = 0.68) or OS (Median not reached vs. 21.6 mo; P = 0.22).Adjuvant Gem/Cis is feasible in patients with resected pancreatic adenocarcinoma. RFS and OS for Gem/Cis appear promising compared to historic control. Tumor ERCC1 expression can be reliably evaluated, and low expression is present in most patients. J. Surg.
