Among patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer, combination chemotherapy with fluorouracil, leucovorin, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX) leads to longer overall survival than gemcitabine therapy. We compared the efficacy and safety of a modified FOLFIRINOX regimen with gemcitabine as adjuvant therapy in patients with resected pancreatic cancer.
We randomly assigned 493 patients with resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma to receive a modified FOLFIRINOX regimen (oxaliplatin [85 mg per square meter of body-surface area], irinotecan [180 mg per square meter, reduced to 150 mg per square meter after a protocol-specified safety analysis], leucovorin [400 mg per square meter], and fluorouracil [2400 mg per square meter] every 2 weeks) or gemcitabine (1000 mg per square meter on days 1, 8, and 15 every 4 weeks) for 24 weeks. The primary end point was disease-free survival. Secondary end points included overall survival and safety.
At a median follow-up of 33.6 months, the median disease-free survival was 21.6 months in the modified-FOLFIRINOX group and 12.8 months in the gemcitabine group (stratified hazard ratio for cancer-related event, second cancer, or death, 0.58; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.46 to 0.73; P<0.001). The disease-free survival rate at 3 years was 39.7% in the modified-FOLFIRINOX group and 21.4% in the gemcitabine group. The median overall survival was 54.4 months in the modified-FOLFIRINOX group and 35.0 months in the gemcitabine group (stratified hazard ratio for death, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.48 to 0.86; P=0.003). The overall survival rate at 3 years was 63.4% in the modified-FOLFIRINOX group and 48.6% in the gemcitabine group. Adverse events of grade 3 or 4 occurred in 75.9% of the patients in the modified-FOLFIRINOX group and in 52.9% of those in the gemcitabine group. One patient in the gemcitabine group died from toxic effects (interstitial pneumonitis).
Adjuvant therapy with a modified FOLFIRINOX regimen led to significantly longer survival than gemcitabine among patients with resected pancreatic cancer, at the expense of a higher incidence of toxic effects.

在转移性胰腺癌患者中,氟尿嘧啶、亚叶酸、伊立替康和奥沙利铂联合化疗(FOLFIRINOX)的总生存期长于吉西他滨治疗。我们比较了改良 FOLFIRINOX 方案联合吉西他滨作为可切除胰腺癌辅助治疗的疗效和安全性。
我们随机分配 493 例接受可切除胰腺导管腺癌治疗的患者,接受改良 FOLFIRINOX 方案(奥沙利铂[85mg/平方米体表面积]、伊立替康[180mg/平方米,根据方案规定的安全性分析后降至 150mg/平方米]、亚叶酸[400mg/平方米]和氟尿嘧啶[2400mg/平方米]每 2 周一次)或吉西他滨(1000mg/平方米,每 4 周一次,第 1、8 和 15 天)治疗 24 周。主要终点是无病生存期。次要终点包括总生存期和安全性。
中位随访 33.6 个月时,改良 FOLFIRINOX 组的中位无病生存期为 21.6 个月,吉西他滨组为 12.8 个月(分层癌症相关事件、第二癌症或死亡风险比,0.58;95%置信区间[CI],0.46 至 0.73;P<0.001)。改良 FOLFIRINOX 组 3 年无病生存率为 39.7%,吉西他滨组为 21.4%。改良 FOLFIRINOX 组中位总生存期为 54.4 个月,吉西他滨组为 35.0 个月(分层死亡风险比,0.64;95%CI,0.48 至 0.86;P=0.003)。改良 FOLFIRINOX 组 3 年总生存率为 63.4%,吉西他滨组为 48.6%。改良 FOLFIRINOX 组 75.9%的患者发生 3 级或 4 级不良事件,吉西他滨组为 52.9%。吉西他滨组 1 例患者死于毒副作用(间质性肺炎)。
改良 FOLFIRINOX 方案辅助治疗可切除胰腺癌患者的生存时间明显长于吉西他滨,但毒性作用发生率更高。(由 R&D Unicancer 等资助;临床试验.gov 编号,NCT01526135;EudraCT 编号,2011-002026-52。)
