Pembrolizumab in Combination with Folfirinox for Treatment of Advanced Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma With MSI-H.
Pancreatic cancer is one of the four most common causes of cancer-related death in the United States. Our patient had metastatic pancreatic cancer with a high tumour burden. He was trialled on an unconventional treatment of combination immunotherapy and chemotherapy. It resulted in decreased cancer burden and decreased FDG activity on a PET scan. Further studies are needed for standard pancreatic cancer treatment.
Learning points: Very few patients survive pancreatic cancer, especially metastatic disease. Our patient is doing very well after a few years.There is little evidence for concurrent use of chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Our patient received it and has had no new lesions, and there has been an improvement on imaging.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine is an official journal of the European Federation of Internal Medicine (EFIM), representing 35 national societies from 33 European countries. The Journal''s mission is to promote the best medical practice and innovation in the field of acute and general medicine. It also provides a forum for internal medicine doctors where they can share new approaches with the aim of improving diagnostic and clinical skills in this field. EJCRIM welcomes high-quality case reports describing unusual or complex cases that an internist may encounter in everyday practice. The cases should either demonstrate the appropriateness of a diagnostic/therapeutic approach, describe a new procedure or maneuver, or show unusual manifestations of a disease or unexpected reactions. The Journal only accepts and publishes those case reports whose learning points provide new insight and/or contribute to advancing medical knowledge both in terms of diagnostics and therapeutic approaches. Case reports of medical errors, therefore, are also welcome as long as they provide innovative measures on how to prevent them in the current practice (Instructive Errors). The Journal may also consider brief and reasoned reports on issues relevant to the practice of Internal Medicine, as well as Abstracts submitted to the scientific meetings of acknowledged medical societies.
