Conditions

Resectable Pancreatic Cancer

Brief summary

This trial is a retrospective, observational study, patients who underwent surgical resection of the pancreas for non-metastatic pancreatic cancer between 2016 and 2022 were selected and divided into two groups according to with (study arm) or without (control arm) nimotuzumab. The primary efficacy endpoint was overall survival (OS).

Detailed description

This trial is a retrospective, observational study based on real-world data obtained from the Health Information System (HIS) of Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine.

The primary efficacy endpoint was overall survival (OS).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
overall survival (OS)approximately 84 monthsThe primary endpoint is overall survival (OS), defined as the time from the start of surgery to the date of death due to any cause.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
disease-free survival (DFS)approximately 84 monthsDFS is defined as the time from surgical resection to the first tumor recurrence/progression or death due to any cause.
locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS)approximately 84 monthsLRRFS is defined as the time from surgical treatment to clinically or radiographically confirmed local recurrence and/or regional progression at follow-up.
