Induction gemcitabine-based chemotherapy and neoadjuvant stereotactic body radiation therapy achieve high margin-negative resection rates for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer

2012 
Objectives Patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC) have a higher probability of undergoing margin-negative resection after completing neoadjuvant therapy. Here, we describe a novel neoadjuvant approach using induction chemotherapy followed by stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for patients with BRPC.
