Clinical outcomes of liposomal irinotecan in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer previously treated with conventional irinotecan: A meta‐analysis of real‐world evidence

Pivotal clinical trials supported survival benefits of liposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI) plus fluorouracil/leucovorin in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) who previously received gemcitabine-based therapy. There are concerns about the benefits of nal-IRI in patients who received FOLFIRINOX (combined fluorouracil, leucovorin, IRI, and oxaliplatin) because of potential cross-resistance to IRI. The objective of this meta-analysis was to characterize the impact of the previous receipt of IRI on the outcomes of nal-IRI regimens in patients with advanced PDAC.
