Impact Of Surveillance Among Patients With Resected Pancreatic Cancer Following Adjuvant Chemotherapy

Despite the absence of surveillance recommendations, the majority of patients underwent surveillance imaging. We demonstrated a non-significant increase in the likelihood of receiving palliative chemotherapy among patients who underwent surveillance scans. With more efficacious palliative chemotherapy options available, studies to determine whether receipt of chemotherapy in asymptomatic recurrences translates into improved survival and/or quality of life are warranted.
