Interesting study π€, curious to see the entire manuscript π behind firewall π₯ π§± Questions that come to mind ππ½ββοΈ 1) why the switch in regimens pre-op? 3) what is definition of EFS? 3) was the adjuvant component similar? 4) was lap staging done? π #PREOPANC3 @ALLIANCE_org
New phase 3 PDAC trial just dropped in @Cancer_Cell! 324 patients with resectable PDAC randomized to sequential neoadjuvant get abraxane followed by mFFX vs upfront surgery with adjuvant therapy. π§΅ https://t.co/53RcPepJiZ
