ARCII: Nelfinavir, a hypoxia-modifying agent, in combination with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in locally-advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC)–mechanism and clinical outcomes

Abstract:

Background: In LAPC, additional benefit of CRT over chemotherapy is uncertain. Optimising local therapy for a subset that never develops distant disease may prolong survival. Nelfinavir is thought to enhance radiosensitivity through hypoxia reduction by increasing tumour blood flow. Methods: A non-randomised, single centre phase II study, in FDG-PET-selectedpatients withhistologically proven LAPC. CRT consisted of: nelfinavir 1250 mg bd (days -3 to 45); gemcitabine 300 mg/m2 & cisplatin 3...
