Amazing results, game changing trial! Ablation can now safely enter the main stage! @retoba1 @MartijnMr @xtofero
But local recurrence after liver resection was 14%? What do we think, liver surgeons? @eahpba @ahpba @ihpba
Surgery vs ablation for small-size CRC liver mtes at #ASCO24
🔎COLLISION phase III, 300 pts
👉medien size 14mm, 2mets
👉mOS: no difference
👉similar local control
👉reduced morbidity & mortality in ablation arm
🧐Ablation very valid option

NORPACT-1 published in @LancetGastroHep. Phase-2 RCT. Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX vs upfront surgery in resectable pancreatic head cancer. Great team effort in 12 centers in the Nordic countries
🇳🇴🇸🇪🇩🇰🇫🇮
✅Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX did not improve survival compared to upfront surgery
✅Median OS 25.1 vs. 38.5 months (HR 1.52 [1.00-2.33])
✅Resection rates 82% versus 89%
✅Improved histopathology (R0, N0) with neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX
👉Future trials on treatment sequencing in resectable pancreatic cancer should be biomarker driven
