N2 - Background: Peritoneal metastases (PM) from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are currently treated with palliative systemic chemotherapy alone, with unsatisfactory results. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) may provide an oncologic benefit for highly selected patients. Patients and Methods: Patients with PDAC and isolated PM who completed ≥ 6 months of systemic chemotherapy with objective response between 2017 and 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. All patients met the inclusion/exclusion criteria as per our previously published PDAC CRS/HIPEC protocol. Patients who underwent CRS/HIPEC were compared with matched patients who underwent systemic therapy alone. Overall survival (OS) from diagnosis of PM and progression-free survival (PFS) from CRS/HIPEC was evaluated. Results: In total, 61 patients met the inclusion criteria: 38 underwent systemic therapy alone and 23 CRS/HIPEC. There were no differences in baseline prognostic factors, including age, sex, tumor size, tumor location, anatomic resectability, or serum cancer antigen (CA) 19-9 (p > 0.05). Median OS from PM diagnosis in patients who underwent systemic therapy alone was 19 months with 1, 2, and 3 year OS of 81%, 31%, and 8%, respectively. In contrast, median OS from PM diagnosis in patients who underwent CRS/HIPEC was 41 months with improved 1, 2, and 3 year OS of 91%, 66%, and 59%, respectively (p = 0.002). In the 21 patients who achieved complete cytoreduction (CC-0), no adjuvant therapy was administered and the median PFS was 17 months. Conclusions: CRS/HIPEC in highly selected patients with PDAC and PM results in promising oncologic outcomes that are unlikely to be achieved with systemic chemotherapy alone. Further investigation is warranted and ongoing (NCT04858009).
