Description

Two-drug induction chemo bought time and sometimes surgery for advanced pancreas cancer in a 2026 phase 2 trial by Zhe Cao and colleagues. Locally advanced disease carries poor outlook and few treatment choices. Nab-paclitaxel plus S-1 served as first treatment across four China centers.

Sixty untreated patients enrolled between April 2019 and March 2023. Nearly half completed the full induction course of up to eight cycles. About a fifth later had tumor removal surgery after shrinking. Six-month freedom from progression cleared seventy percent in the trial. Serious side effects hit over half, mainly low white cell counts. No treatment deaths occurred.
