Pancreatic adenocarcinoma, Version 2.2021

Margaret A. Tempero, +35 more
Abstract: Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death among men and women in the United States. A major challenge in treatment remains patients' advanced disease at diagnosis. The NCCN Guidelines for Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma provides recommendations for the diagnosis, evaluation, treatment, and follow-up for patients with pancreatic cancer. Although survival rates remain relatively unchanged, newer modalities of treatment, including targeted therapies, provide hope for improving patient outcomes. Sections of the manuscript have been updated to be concordant with the most recent update to the guidelines. This manuscript focuses on the available systemic therapy approaches, specifically the treatment options for locally advanced and metastatic disease.

Prediction of invasive carcinoma in branch type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas

TL;DR: It is suggested that careful imaging study of the entire pancreas in addition to tumor lesions and measurement of serum CEA and CA19-9 would be required to find out the development of the two types of invasive carcinoma in BD-IPMN.

Asymptomatic pancreatic cystic neoplasms: maximizing survival and quality of life using Markov-based clinical nomograms.

TL;DR: Management of pancreatic cysts can be guided using novel Markov-based clinical nomograms, and depends on age, cyst size, comorbidities, and whether patients value overall survival vs quality-adjusted survival.
