Core Tip Locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) is a common malignant digestive system tumor with poor prognosis. Gemcitabine (GEM) is currently used as a first-line chemotherapy for treatment of LAPC; however, the overall outcome was poor. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a novel, non-thermal ablation technology that uses high voltage electrical pulses to induce pore formation, resulting in cell apoptosis. We found that GEM plus concurrent IRE resulted in significantly prolonging overall survival compared with chemotherapy alone. Therefore, GEM plus concurrent IRE has a synergistic effect on the clinical treatment of LAPC.
