Official title
A Single-center, Prospective, Observational Cohort Study of Chemoradiotherapy in Elderly Patients with Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer (70+).
Overview
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the therapeutic effects of chemoradiotherapy for older adults (age 70-85) with locally advanced pancreatic cancer. The main question it aims to answer is: Does chemoradiotherapy represent an effective and safe treatment for older participants without radical surgery? Participants will sequentially receive combined chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy and subsequent maintenance therapy.
Primary outcome measures
- 1-year survival rate [Time frame: From the date of first therapy administration to one year later]
Secondary outcome measures (6)
- Toxicity and side effects and tolerability assessment [Time frame: From the date of first therapy administration to within 90 days, up to 24 months]
- event-free survival throughout the enrolled subject population [Time frame: From the date of first therapy administration until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months.]
- the proportion of participants that completed chemoradiotherapy [Time frame: From the date of first enrollment to the date of completion of follow-up of the last patient, up to 24 months.]
- the proportion ofparticipants that completed all planned courses [Time frame: From the date of first enrollment to the date of completion of follow-up of the last patient, up to 24 months.]
- Objective response rate (ORR) tumor target lesions in the entire subject population all planned courses [Time frame: From the date of first therapy administration until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months.]
- Disease control rate (DCR) of tumor target lesions in the entire subject population all planned courses [Time frame: From date of first therapy administration until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 24 months.]
