GS Regimen as the First-line Chemotherapy in Chinese Advanced PC Patients

Gemcitabine Plus S-1 as the First-line Chemotherapy in Chinese Patients With Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

Gemcitabine plus S-1 (GS) prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) and greatly improved objective response rate (ORR) as well as disease control rate (DCR) of Asian patients with locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer (PC). However, limited data of GS regimen exist on the efficacy and safety in the treatment of Chinese patients with advanced PC. To assess the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine plus S-1 (GS regimen) as the first-line chemotherapy in Chinese patients with advanced PC, we designed this prospective study.
