Core Tip |
This is the first study to compare FOLFOXIRI and FOLFIRINOX regimens head-to-head, to assess whether FOLFOXIRI contributes to better a balance of the toxicity/efficacy ratio in advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. These findings do not suggest any therapeutic benefit of FOLFOXIRI compared to FOLFIRINOX in first-line chemotherapy. These results show that additional evaluation is not warranted in future clinical trials. FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy remains the standard of care first-line therapy in metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Interestingly, the low hematological toxicity rates in both regimens underscore the interest of prophylactic administration of hematopoietic growth factors in routine use after each polychemotherapy cycle. |
