Preoperative modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX) with or without chemoradiation (CRT) in borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC): Results from the randomized phase II trial PANDAS/PRODIGE 44 (Sevilla Auditorium - Hall 2) - Jul 16, 2024 - Abstract #ESMO2024ESMO_1437; P2 Those who had tumour controlled at restaging were randomized between two additional cycles of mFOLFIRINOX (arm A) alone or followed by a CRT (50.4 Gy in 28 fractions with capecitabine 825mg/m2 BID 5 days a week) prior to surgery. Patients without disease progression then underwent a pancreatectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy for 3 months (gemcitabine or 5-FU/folinic acid before 6/2008, mFOLFIRINOX thereafter)...R0 resection was achieved in 20/37 pts (54.1%) in arm A and 18/31 pts (58.1%) in arm B. ypCR was observed in 3 pts (8.1%) in arm A and 9 (29%) in arm B. The median OS was 32.8 months (95%CI: 22.7

And drug resistance emerges during the application of the most widely used chemotherapeutic regimens such as modified FOLFIRINOX regimen, gemcitabine monotherapy or 5-Fluorouracil combination therapy, which further reduces the therapeutic efficacy...Meanwhile, natural products have also hindered the progress of their basic and clinical research due to the complexity of their composition and the limitation of biological extraction technology. Further exploration of the specific molecular mechanisms of natural products to inhibit the proliferation and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells, optimization of purification and preparation techniques, and enrichment of basic and clinical trials to verify their efficacy and safety may be the future direction of natural products in the field of anti-pancreatic cancer research.

Journal, Metastases: Long-Term Survival in a Patient with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Treated with Trifluridine/Tipiracil as Late-Line Chemotherapy: A Case Report. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 11, 2024 The woman who was 52 years old at diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the right colon (T3/N0/M1) with metastases to the lung, liver, ovary, and other soft tissues received first-line fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy (FOLFOX/FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab) intermittently for approximately 8.5 years with generally stable disease, and second-line FOLFIRI plus radiotherapy...Neutropenia was successfully managed with FTD/TPI dose delays or reductions. This heavily pre-treated patient with mCRC demonstrated impressive long-term survival and maintenance of good quality of life with FTD/TPI treatment.

(Pubmed Central) - Jul 10, 2024 Prior IRI exposure does not affect the survival outcomes of nal-IRI regimens in patients who have advanced PDAC. The selection of later lines of chemotherapy regimens should be based on the differential safety profile, patient status, the cost of treatment, and health-related quality of life.

Journal: Intratumoral NKT cell accumulation promotes antitumor immunity in pancreatic cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 9, 2024 To evaluate the therapeutic potential of these observations, we find that administration of folinic acid to mice bearing PDA increases NKT cells in the TME and improves their response to anti-PD-1 antibody treatment. In conclusion, NKT cells have an essential role in the immune response to mouse PDA and are potential targets for immunotherapy.
