Résumé

Advanced, unresectable pancreatic cancer is often treated with either gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel (Gem/NabP) or FOLFIRINOX, although these regimens have never been compared in a head-to-head trial. In this study, we compared these two regimens using Veterans Administration (VA) data and evaluated the use of a novel tumor growth formula to predict outcomes.
