Additionally, high IL1R2 expression was associated with reduced CD8+ T cell infiltration in pancreatic cancer microenvironment, which may be due to high PD-L1 expression in cancer cells.

Herein, we reported a case of pmPDAC with high serum CAs who had long-term clinical remission with normalization of CAs after chemoradiation. In November 2019, a 64-year-old male patient was admitted to our center with a solid mass measuring 2.8×2.5×2.0cm in the body of the pancreas near the celiac trunk. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) revealed an SUVmax of 4.2. The serum CA 242 level exceeded 150.0 U/ml (normal range: 0-20 U/ml), and CA 19-9 was elevated at 975.2 U/ml (normal range: 0-34 U/ml). During laparotomy, the tumor was found to encircle the celiac trunk over 180 degrees, with several small peritoneal nodules in the lesser omental cavity. Pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of pmPDAC. Next-generation sequencing revealed RAS G12V, EGFR mutation (-), low TMB (tumor mutation burden), and MSS (microsatellite stability). The patient underwent six cycles of the AG regimen (gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel), resulting in significant tumor shrinkage and a sharp decline in CAs. Partial remission was achieved. However, due to intolerant neurotoxicity, the AG regimen was discontinued. Subsequently, synchronous oral fluorouracil (S1) and radiation therapy were administered. Five months after radiation treatment, all CAs normalized. Oral S1 was continued for an additional three months. Eventually, all anti-cancer drugs were stopped. Computed tomography scans indicated that the tumor still surrounded the celiac trunk and common hepatic artery. After a thorough discussion, a wait-and-see strategy was adopted. Remarkably, 32 months after stopping anti-cancer medication, the patient remains in good health, with sustained normalization of CAs.\u0000 At the last follow-up, he had lived for 50 months, and the normalization of the CAs was sustained for 36 months.

The most common complication is post- endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP) with incidence rates being reported at ~10%. The exact mechanism of PEP is unknown but is likely multi-factorial with papillary edema contributing to the activation of the inflammatory cascade playing an important role. Selected risk factors include patient-related factors (female, sex, younger age, sphincter of Oddi dysfunction, and history of PEP) and procedure-related factors (difficult cannulation, multiple pancreatic duct guidewire passes, pancreatic acinarization, multiple pancreatic duct contrast injections and precut sphincterotomy). Several preventative prophylactic strategies have been posited; however, current guidelines recommend the use of rectal NSAIDs, aggressive IV fluid hydration and pancreatic duct stents. Appropriate patient selection and the use of non-invasive imaging modalities for diagnosis of pancreaticobiliary abnormalities is a key aspect in prevention. Future studies continue to explore various pharmacologic, procedure-related and combination strategies for prevention and will be important as the use of ERCP continues to grow.","PeriodicalId":92925,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pancreatology","volume":"18 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139002829","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current research delves into understanding these molecular mechanisms. Pain, a pivotal symptom of CP, has been increasingly studied to develop effective therapeutic interventions. Diagnostic advancements, including endoscopic ultrasound, radiomics, and blood-based markers, have shown potential in enhancing early CP detection. Moreover, recent clinical trials have optimized treatment approaches, such as pancreatic stone fragmentation, stent placement, and decision-making between endoscopic and surgical procedures.
