NEO-ADJUVANT (PRE-OPERATIVE) THERAPY
Advantages Pre-operative Chemo radiation over Post-operative Chemo radiation More effective chemotherapy delivery with an intact blood supply Avoidance of hypoxia related chemo radiation resistance Avoidance of late radiation toxicity by surgical removal of irradiated duodenum and use of unirradiated jejunum use in reconstruction Immediate use of systemic therapy for a disease that is systemic at diagnosis in the majority of patients Improved patient selection for pancreatic surgery Pancreatic surgery is safer following chemo radiation due to reduced risk of pancreatic anastomotic leak due to pancreatic fibrosis Timely access to therapy. No delays due to post-operative recovery complications Increases R0 (complete) resection rates in patients with borderline resectable tumors
