Study Overview

Neoadjuvant S-1 and Concurrent Radiotherapy for Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer

Multicenter Prospective Phase II Study for Neoadjuvant S-1 and Concurrent Radiotherapy for Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer RATIONALE: Borderline resectable pancreatic cancer is frequently related to a positive surgical margin and has a poor prognosis after resection. Neoadjuvant chemoradiation with intensive local effect may lead to substantial local control and prolongation of survival in borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. PURPOSE: This phase II trial assess efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant S-1 and concurrent radiotherapy for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer.

S-1: S-1 is an oral fluorinated pyrimidine agent which contains tegafur (FT, a prodrug of 5-FU), 5-chloro-2,4-dihydropyrimidine (CHDP) and potassium oxonate (Oxo) effective for gastric and various other types of cancers. S-1 is also active for pancreatic cancer: S-1 demonstrated non-inferiority to gemcitabine in overall survival for metastatic or locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC). S-1 and Concurrent radiotherapy: S-1 therapy with concurrent radiation therapy (RT) had favorable activity with overall tumor response rate of 37%, as well as mild toxicity in patients with LAPC. The median survival time and the 2-year survival rate for LAPC patients treated by S-1/RT were 16.2 months and 26% respectively. Definition of Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer:(1) Reconstructible bilateral impingement of superior mesenteric vein or portal vein; (2) Tumor contact with the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) of

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group/ArmIntervention/Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Neoadjuvant S-1/RT

This is a single arm prospective study. All eligible subjects will receive neoadjuvant S-1 and concurrent radiation followed by surgical resection. Subjects may receive adjuvant chemotherapy after surgical resection at the clinical discretion of the medic

DRUG: S-1

  • S-1 is administered orally at a dose of 40 mg/m2 twice daily on the day of irradiation (Monday through Friday) during radiation therapy.

RADIATION: Radiation Therapy

  • Radiation therapy is delivered with >6-megavolts (MV) photons, using a multiple field technique. A total dose of 50.4 Gy is delivered in 28 fractions over 5.5 weeks.
