Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main endpoint is overall survival (OS). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| • Chemotherapy rate, defined as the percentage of eligible randomized patients who received at least one cycle of chemotherapy. • Chemotherapy completion rate, defined as the percentage of eligible randomized patients who completed all cycles of scheduled chemotherapy. • Staging laparoscopy rate, defined as the percentage of eligible randomized patients that actually underwent a staging laparoscopy, regardless whether a laparotomy or resection was performed. • Laparoscopy yield, defined as the percentage of patients that underwent staging laparoscopy and were diagnosed with metastatic disease during this procedure. • Exploratory laparotomy rate, defined as the percentage of eligible randomized patients who actually underwent an exploratory laparotomy, regardless whether a resection was performed. • Resection rate, defined as the percentage of eligible randomized patients that underwent a curative-intent resection. • R0 resection rate, defined as the percentage of eligible randomized patients that underwent a microscopically complete (R0) resection. The resection is considered R0 if the inked margin is more than 1 mm away from tumor cells. • Progression-free survival, defined as survival without progressive or recurrent pancreatic cancer from the date of randomization. Death from any cause is also considered an event for this endpoint. • Locoregional recurrence free interval (LRFI), defined as the period of time without locoregional recurrence after randomization. A locoregional failure is any persistent or recurrent pancreatic cancer in the original tumor location, or the N1 lymph node areas. • Distant metastases free interval (DMFI), defined as the period of time without distant metastases after randomization. • Disease free survival (DFS), defined as the period of time between randomization and locoregional recurrence, occurrence of distant metastases or second pancreatic cancer, or death (all causes). • Locoregional recurrence free i | — |
