Background Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer mortality in the US. Recent studies have demonstrated survival benefits for FOLFIRINOX (5-FU, leucovorin, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin) and Gem/nab-P (gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel) over gemcitabine. We aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of mPDAC before and after incorporating these newer regimens into the clinical practice. Methods A retrospective study of patients with mPDAC at our institution between 2009 and 2018, who were followed up until December 2019. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were calculated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Univariate and multivariable Cox regression analyses were used to explore predictors of survival. Results A total of 394 patients with mPDAC were included: 122 (31%) were diagnosed 2009-2013 and 272 (69%) 2014-2018. In 2009-2013 cohort vs. 2014-2018 cohort, the median OS and PFS were similar (4 vs. 3.6 months, P = 0.5) and (2.3 vs. 2.5 months, P = 0.41), respectively. Age, ECOG-PS >1, serum albumin, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelets-to-lymphocyte ratio were independent predictors of better OS. Conclusions In this study of real-world data, the median OS and PFS for all patients with mPDAC were equivalent before and after incorporating newer treatment regimens into the clinical practice.
