Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Human equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (hENT1) is a membrane transporter which is a predicting marker for gemcitabine chemotherapy. However, there is a limited evidence of it as an indicator for adjuvant gemcitabine chemotherapy. In this study, investigators try to investigate the role of hENT1 as a indicator of selection of adjuvant chemotherapy regimen between gemcitabine and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

After surgical resection of pancreatic cancer, the tissue is immunostained by hENT1 antibody. The grades of immunostaining are categorized as 0 (0%), 1 (\<50%), and 2 (\>=50%). According to the grade, patients with grade 0 or 1 will be treated with 5-FU and those with grade 2 will be treated with gemcitabine. After the study, investigators will calculate the overall survival and recurrence free survival of the patients and investigate the role of hENT1 as a predictive biomarker for adjuvant gemcitabine chemotherapy.
