Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to assess overall survival, quality of life and resection rates in locally advanced pancreatic cancer
Detailed description
This is a multicenter pragmatic prospective observational study including Nordic hospitals treating patients with borderline resectable and locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Eligibility will be assessed at regional multidisciplinary tumor boards. Patients with borderline resectable and locally advanced (non-endocrine) pancreatic cancer according to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) are eligible for inclusion. The study is observational. Quality of life will be assessed in all study participants. The primary outcomes are exploration rates, resection rates and overall survival.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Median Overall Survival | From date of inclusion until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 72 months | Median overall survival for patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer stratified for treatment allocation |
| Resection | From the time of inclusion to end of study follow up or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 72 months | Rates of resection among patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer stratified for treatment allocation |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Predictors of resectability | From the time of inclusion to end of study follow up or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 72 months | Logistic regression models assessing predictors of resectability |
| Quality of Life at baseline | At first visit/inclusion | Quality of life assessed with EORTC QLQ C30 focused on self-reported Global Health Score ranging from 1 to 7 where a higher number indicates better self-experienced health |
| Quality of Life at 3 months after inclusion | Quality of Life at 3 months after inclusion | Quality of life assessed with EORTC QLQ C30 focused on self-reported Global Health Score ranging from 1 to 7 where a higher number indicates better self-experienced health |
| Oncological treatment compliance | From the time of inclusion to end of study follow up or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 72 months | Number of patients that complete a started oncological treatment and are able to complete regimen |
| Quality of Life at 9 months after inclusion | Quality of Life at 9 months after inclusion | Quality of life assessed with EORTC QLQ C30 focused on self-reported Global Health Score ranging from 1 to 7 where a higher number indicates better self-experienced health |
| Quality of Life at 12 months after inclusion | Quality of Life at 12 months after inclusion | Quality of life assessed with EORTC QLQ C30 focused on self-reported Global Health Score ranging from 1 to 7 where a higher number indicates better self-experienced health |
| Quality of Life at 24 months after inclusion | Quality of Life at 24 months after inclusion | Quality of life assessed with EORTC QLQ C30 focused on self-reported Global Health Score ranging from 1 to 7 where a higher number indicates better self-experienced health |
| Quality of Life at 6 months after inclusion | Quality of Life at 6 months after inclusion | Quality of life assessed with EORTC QLQ C30 focused on self-reported Global Health Score ranging from 1 to 7 where a higher number indicates better self-experienced health |
| Chemotherapy response | From the time of inclusion to end of study follow up or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, up to 72 months | Percentage within each RECIST strata |
