2015, Seminars in OncologyCitation Excerpt :Interestingly, 86% of patients enrolled in the study had pancreatic head tumors and the study was mainly powered to analyze the survival among these patients. This distinction was made because investigators reasoned that patients with resected pancreatic body or tail tumors generally have different clinical presentations and operations, as well as an overall worse prognosis compared to those with head tumors.15,16 Therefore, by using the key primary endpoint of overall survival for patients with pancreatic head tumors, the investigators reported a median survival of.
