Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal disease with a poor prognosis. In resectable PDAC, the recurrence rate is still high even when surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) are applied. Regional lymph node metastasis and positive margins are associated with higher recurrence risk and worse survival. Adjuvant radiotherapy has been explored, but its efficacy remains controversial. In recent years, some characteristics have been reported to stratify patients who may benefit from adjuvant chemoradiation (CRT), such as lymph node metastasis and margin status. Adjuvant chemotherapy followed by chemoradiation (CT-CRT) was also proposed. A total of 266 patients with resectable PDAC who have lymph node metastasis or R1 resection after surgery were enrolled. In multivariate Cox regression analyses, pancreatic body or tail tumor location (HR 0.433, p |
