Second-line and third-line therapy with nanoliposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI) in pancreatic cancer: a single-center experience and review of literature

Abstract: Background: Prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer is still extremely poor. First-line palliative therapies with FOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel have been established in the last decade. In the second-line, 5-FU/LV in combination with nanoliposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI) after gemcitabine has been shown to be effective. However, the use of nal-IRI as third-line therapy after FOLFIRINOX and gemcitabine-based chemotherapies is still controversial. In this study, we report about the use of 5-FU/LV + … Show more

“…Although it was not feasible to objectively evaluate in our patients the treatment responses by imaging exams, the data on the overall survival after the beginning of LDE-paclitaxel therapy suggest that this treatment is not inferior to other chemotherapeutic approaches to the disease. In this respect, in treatments of patients with PAC, Wu (2015) tested Neratinib plus Lapatinib and capecitabine and reported median overall survival 5.2 months [23]; Cardin (2018), 4.57 months with ganetespib [24]; Mie (2021), 4.6 months with erlotinib plus gemcitabine [19]; Mohring (2023) with liposomal irinotecan plus 5-fluorouracil, 9.33 months [25]. Relative to commercial formulations of paclitaxel, in second or third line treatments of PAC, Tajima (2018) reported 0.77 months with lowdose paclitaxel [20] and Hosein (2013) reported 7.3-month overall survival with nab-paclitaxel [22].…”
