Abstract: |
The editorial in Frontiers in Oncology discusses recent advancements in pancreatic cancer radiotherapy, focusing on the role of radiation therapy (RT) in managing locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer. The integration of RT with chemotherapy has shown promising results, with Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) and Neoadjuvant Therapy (NAT) being key topics of interest. Studies have shown that combining RT with chemotherapy significantly improves overall survival in patients with unresectable locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer. Further research is needed to determine the optimal neoadjuvant therapy for pancreatic cancer to enhance prognosis. [Extracted from the article] |
