Combined Chemotherapy And Ablative Radiotherapy (SBRT) As First-Line Treatment In Locally Advanced Inoperable Pancreatic Cancer (SBRT-PANC)

Summary

This prospective interventional clinical study evaluates the efficacy and safety of combining systemic chemotherapy followed by ablative stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) as first-line treatment in adult patients with locally advanced, inoperable pancreatic cancer. The study aims to determine the response rate after SBRT delivered following initial chemotherapy, as well as time to disease progression and treatment-related toxicity. Patients receive standard first-line chemotherapy and, in the absence of disease progression, undergo ablative SBRT to the primary tumor, followed by continuation of systemic therapy according to clinical practice. The study is conducted in Slovenia, with patient enrollment expanded to additional participating clinical centers following an approved amendment.
