Description
Summary:Adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for pancreas cancer (PDAC) has been demonstrated to improve survival. However, the optimal adjuvant treatment (AT) regimen for R1-margin patients remains unclear. This retrospective study investigates the impact of AC vs. adjuvant chemoradiotherapy (ACRT) on survival (OS). The NCDB was queried for patients with PDAC who underwent PD between 2010 and 2018. Patients were divided into, (A) AC
