Adding Metastasis-Directed Therapy for Oligometastatic Pancreas Cancer
Featuring Ethan Ludmir, MD
At the 2024 ASCO Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium, Ethan Ludmir, MD, discusses results from the phase 2 EXTEND study, evaluating the addition of metastasis-directed therapy for oligometastatic pancreas cancer.
This study found, among patients with oligometastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the combination of metastasis-directed therapy plus systemic therapy was associated with improved progression-free survival compared with systemic therapy alone.
