Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Age 18–75 years, with no restriction on sex; 2. Histologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), with a diagnosis of locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) established by imaging studies (contrast-enhanced CT and/or MRI) and multidisciplinary team (MDT) evaluation, according to the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines for Pancreatic Cancer (Version 2, 2025); 3. No evidence of distant metastasis; 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1; 5. Estimated life expectancy >= 6 months; 6.

Deemed suitable for surgical intervention by surgical assessment, with elective surgery planned following completion of neoadjuvant therapy; 8. Adequate organ function, meeting the following laboratory criteria: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1.5 × 10?/L; Platelet count >= 100 × 10?/L; Hemoglobin >= 9 g/dL; Total bilirubin = 50 mL/min, calculated using the Cockcroft–Gault formula; 9.
