Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NAT) Group

This cohort includes elderly patients (≥70 years) with resectable or borderline resectable (BR) pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAT). The NAT regimens include 5-FluoroUracil, Irinotecan, Oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX), gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel (GnP), and other standard chemotherapy protocols. The study aims to evaluate the impact of NAT on overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), R0 resection rates, and postoperative outcomes, as well as the toxicity profile of different NAT regimens.
