🚨 New in @AnnalsofSurgery showing ⬆️ survival with routine imaging vs symptomatic follow-up after #pdac resection. 🕵🏼‍♂️Routine imaging also associated with asymptomatic recurrence and recurrence treatment. @DPCG_official @MarcBesselink @Gio_Marchegiani journals.lww.com/annalsofsur…

Lung only metastatic PDAC 🫁 Better survival than liver! In @NatureCancer 🧬 a primary organotropism (pORG) gene set analysis 👮 Lung-avid/liver-averse tumors associated with active tumor immunity / less replication stress 😥 🤌 Your policy!? nature.com/articles/s43018-0…

(Let’s keep using this social in the best possible way … ) 🫢 🟠 Recurrence after PDAC resection is sadly a fact 🔵 @EAHPBA study on 333 pts reveals routine imaging in post op 👍 vs. symptomatic FU 💡Prompt access chemo = better survival jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

🧪🩸Increase of CA19-9 can predict recurrence 7-10mos before CT imaging. These results further consolidate CA19-9 as a biomarker in patients with pancreatic cancer. As such, CA19-9 should be systematically evaluated in the neo-adjuvant, peri-operative and post-operative setting.

Very proud of our newest published research in @ejsotweets, the latest product of the continuing fruitful collaboration between the @UMCUtrecht and @HopkinsMedicine. Unfortunately, many patients who undergo resection of pancreatic cancer experience cancer recurrence. 1/2

Using data from both the USA and the Netherlands, our team developed a clinical risk score that helps predict survival at time of recurrence. We hope this tool will help inform patients when making difficult choices considering further treatment and quality of life. 2/3
