Venous Thromboembolism in Patients with Advanced Pancreatic Cancer Receiving Palliative Chemotherapy: Incidence and Effect on Prognosis

Abstract: Background/Aims: This study evaluated the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) at the authors' institution and analyzed the risk factors associated with VTE and the overall survival (OS). Methods: One hundred and seventy patients with locally advanced or metastatic PDAC who received palliative chemotherapy at Daegu Catholic University Medical Center from January 2011 to December 2020 were included.

“…The majority of the patients were middle-aged and elderly individuals diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer. Treatment modalities included chemotherapy ( 14 16 , 18 20 , 22 , 23 ) or chemoradiotherapy ( 17 , 21 ). Our research aimed to assess the predictive value of VTE in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer by combining OS and DFS data.…”
