Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main aim of this study are both to determine the safety (patients with CTCAE grade 3-4-5 complications) and efficacy (significant change in the within-patient durometer measurements of radiated and non-radiated pancreatic texture) of preoperative radiotherapy. If both criteria for safety and efficacy are met, the endpoint POPF Grade B and C is assessed in 13 more patients, totalling 33 patients. | — |
