Abstract
Background: Neoadjuvant therapy (NT) is increasingly utilized for localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The incidence of hospital admission during NT and its impact on clinical outcomes is poorly understood.
Methods: Patients with localized PDAC who received intent-to-treat NT between 2018 and 2023 at a single institution were retrospectively reviewed. Hospital admission rates, reasons, and the impact on overall survival (OS) were assessed.
Results: Among 305 patients, 58.4 % were male, 90.7 % were white, and median age was 66. Patients had potentially resectable (31.1 %), borderline resectable (36.7 %), and locally advanced disease (32.1 %). The median duration of NT was 119 days. Overall, 80 (26.2 %) patients required hospital admission during NT (range 1-5). The most common reasons for admission were fever/infection (33.8 %) and gastrointestinal symptoms (20.8 %). Factors associated with hospital admission included LA anatomic stage (OR 2.56; 95%CI: 1.22-5.39; p = 0.013) and BMI (OR 1.09; 95%CI: 1.04-1.15; p < 0.001). Hospital admission was associated with reduced odds of undergoing surgical resection (OR 0.27; 95%CI: 0.14-0.54; p < 0.001) and worse OS (median 14.6 months; 95%CI: 11.3-18.0 vs 22.6 months; 95%CI: 17.2-28.1; p < 0.001).
Conclusion: Hospital admission is common among patients with PDAC receiving NT and associated with worse outcomes. Further research on optimizing care delivery during NT is critical to improve outcomes.
期刊介绍:
HPB is an international forum for clinical, scientific and educational communication.
Twelve issues a year bring the reader leading articles, expert reviews, original articles, images, editorials, and reader correspondence encompassing all aspects of benign and malignant hepatobiliary disease and its management. HPB features relevant aspects of clinical and translational research and practice.
Specific areas of interest include HPB diseases encountered globally by clinical practitioners in this specialist field of gastrointestinal surgery. The journal addresses the challenges faced in the management of cancer involving the liver, biliary system and pancreas. While surgical oncology represents a large part of HPB practice, submission of manuscripts relating to liver and pancreas transplantation, the treatment of benign conditions such as acute and chronic pancreatitis, and those relating to hepatobiliary infection and inflammation are also welcomed. There will be a focus on developing a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment with endoscopic and laparoscopic approaches, radiological interventions and surgical techniques being strongly represented. HPB welcomes submission of manuscripts in all these areas and in scientific focused research that has clear clinical relevance to HPB surgical practice.
HPB aims to help its readers - surgeons, physicians, radiologists and basic scientists - to develop their knowledge and practice. HPB will be of interest to specialists involved in the management of hepatobiliary and pancreatic disease however will also inform those working in related fields.
