Clinical Trials: NCCN believes that the best management of any cancer patient is in a clinical trial. Participation in clinical trials is especially encouraged.

PRINCIPLES OF SURGERY

#1 Decisions about diagnostic management and resectability should involve

multidisciplinary consultation with reference to appropriate radiographic studies to

evaluate extent of disease.

#2 Resections should be done at institutions that perform a large number of 

pancreatic resections annually.

#3 Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) may be complimentary to CT. EUS-directed FNA

biopsy may be preferable to a CT-guided FNA in patients with resectable disease

because of the lower risk of peritoneal seeding with EUS FNA when compared with

the percutaneous approach.

#4 Diagnostic staging laparoscopy to rule out subradiologic metastases (especially

for body and tail lesions) is used routinely in some institutions prior to surgery or chemoradiation, or selectively in patients who are at higher risk for disseminated

disease, such as those with borderline resectable disease or poor prognostic factors

(eg, markedly elevated CA19-9 or large, bulky primary tumor).

#5 Further study is necessary to determine whether positive cytology from washings

obtained at laparoscopy is a contraindication to resection or other local treatment.

Clinical Trials: NCCN believes that the best management of any cancer patient is in a clinical trial. Participation in clinical trials is especially encouraged.

PRINCIPLES OF RADIATION THERAPY

ADJUVANT RTIn contrast to the GITSG trial more recent phase III trials have not provided evidence of benefit from

radiotherapy in this setting. The most recent trial, ESPAC-1 has even suggested that radiotherapy is detrimental.

However, these trials have been criticized widely for lack of statistical power (EORTC) and serious flaws in

conduct and reporting (ESPAC). Therefore, these latest results cannot support a change in the standard of care,

and 5-FU based radiochemotherapy in the adjuvant setting is an acceptable choice.Use of CT simulation and 3D treatment planning is strongly encouraged.Treatment volumes should be based on preoperative CT scans and surgical clips (when placed)

Treatment volumes include the location of the primary tumor and regional lymph nodesDose: 45-54 Gy (1.8-2.0 Gy/day)

DEFINITIVE RTRadiation is usually given in combination with 5-FU chemotherapy. Recent evidence suggests that concurrent

gemcitabine and radiation can yield similar outcomes.Use of CT simulation and 3D treatment planning is strongly encouragedTreatment volumes should be based on CT scans and surgical clips (when placed)When 5-FU based radiochemotherapy is employed, treatment volumes include the location of the primary

tumor and regional lymph nodesThe dose for definitive 5-FU based radiochemotherapy is 50-60 Gy (1.8-2.0 Gy/day)

Table 1

American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC)TNM Staging of Pancreatic Cancer (2002)

Primary Tumor (T)

Distant Metastasis (M)

Because only a few patients with pancreatic cancer undergo

surgical resection of the pancreas (and adjacent lymph nodes), a

single TNM classification must apply to both clinical and pathologic

staging.

Primary tumor cannot be assessed

No evidence of primary tumor 

Carcinoma

Tumor limited to the pancreas, 2 cm or less in greatest

dimensionTumor limited to the pancreas, more than 2 cm in greatest

dimension

Tumor extends beyond the pancreas but without involvement of 

the celiac axis or the superior mesenteric artery

Tumor involves the celiac axis or the superior mesenteric

artery (unresectable primary tumor)

*This also includes the “PanInIII” classification.

Regional lymph nodes cannot be assessed

No regional lymph node metastasis

Distant metastasis cannot be assessed

Histopathologic Type

Histologic Grade (G)

The staging system applies to all exocrine carcinomas that arise in

the pancreas. It does not apply to endocrine tumors, which usually

arise from the islets of Langerhans. Carcinoid tumors are also

excluded. More than 90% of malignant tumors of the pancreas are

exocrine carcinomas. The following carcinomas are included:
