Resectable Pancreatic Cancer
Conditions
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. 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).
Interventions
Nimotuzumab (400mg) was given weekly

Exclusion criteria
* Patients with other primary malignancies other than pancreatic cancer; * Evidence of recurrence or distant metastasis before surgery * Received immunotherapy drugs (such as PD-1 inhibitors, etc.) used during adjuvant therapy, or proprietary Chinese medicines with anti-tumor indications, or hyperthermia, targeted therapy drugs other than nimotuzumab; * Key information is missing (e.g., primary endpoint data were not available).
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| overall survival (OS) | approximately 84 months | The 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
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| disease-free survival (DFS) | approximately 84 months | DFS 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 months | LRRFS is defined as the time from surgical treatment to clinically or radiographically confirmed local recurrence and/or regional progression at follow-up. |
