Importance Adjuvant chemotherapy regimens may be administered after pancreatic resection for adenocarcinoma arising from intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (A-IPMNs), although the evidence supporting their use is limited. Objective To evaluate the survival benefit associated with contemporary adjuvant chemotherapy regimens after resection in A-IPMNs between 2017 and 2023. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective cohort study was an international, multicenter study with 69 participating centers across Europe, North America, South America, and the Asia-Pacific region. Patients undergoing resection for A-IPMNs were included. Data were analyzed from May to August 2025. Intervention Contemporary adjuvant chemotherapy regimens, such as gemcitabine-capecitabine (GemCap); 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan (FOLFIRINOX), modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX), and S-1. Main Outcome and Measure Overall survival (months). Results Among 1321 patients (median [IQR] age 70 [63 to 76] years; 713 males [54.0%] and 608 females [46.0%]), 781 patients (59.1%) received adjuvant chemotherapy, while in 181 patients (13.7%) it was omitted due to poor patient fitness. Of patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy, 568 patients (72.6%) received contemporary regimens, including GemCap (232 patients [29.7%]), FOLFIRINOX (176 patients [22.5%]), mFOLFIRINOX (71 patients [9.1%]), and S-1 (70 patients [9.0%]). The median (IQR) follow-up for the cohort was 64.2 (40.4 to 85.0) months, and the median overall survival was 73.8 months (95% CI, 66.4 to 81.9 months). After 90-day landmark analysis and exclusion of patients ineligible for chemotherapy, adjuvant chemotherapy vs no adjuvant chemotherapy (propensity score–matched populations, 243:243 patients) was not associated with improved overall survival (median, 82.3 months; 95% CI, 78.2 months to not applicable [NA] vs not reached; 95% CI, 75.3 months to NA; P = .58). Contemporary regimens vs no adjuvant chemotherapy (propensity score–matched populations, 309:309 patients) was not associated with longer survival, and a mean survival benefit greater than 4.2 months over 5 years was excluded (difference in restricted mean survival, 1.26 months; 95%, −1.72 to 4.24 months). Treatment outcomes did not vary by chemotherapy regimen or disease characteristic (eg, N stage or carbohydrate antigen 19-9 level). Conclusions and Relevance In this study, contemporary adjuvant chemotherapy was not associated with improved overall survival in A-IPMNs, and a randomized clinical trial is indicated.

The key to the successful management of pancreatic cystic neoplasm (PCN), among which intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is the one with the highest risk of advanced neoplasia in resected patients, is a careful combination of clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings. This study aims to perform the comparison of a preoperative evaluation with pathological reports in IPMN and further, to evaluate and compare the diagnostic performance of European evidence-based guidelines on pancreatic cystic neoplasms (EEBGPCN) and Fukuoka Consensus guidelines (FCG). We analyzed 106 consecutive patients diagnosed with different types of PCN, among whom 68 had IPMN diagnosis, at the Clinical Center of Serbia. All the patients diagnosed with IPMNs were stratified concerning the presence of the absolute and relative indications according to EEBGPCN and high-risk stigmata and worrisome features according to FCG. Final histopathology revealed that IPMNs patients were further divided into malignant (50 patients) and benign (18 patients) groups, according to the pathological findings. The preoperative prediction of malignancy according to EEBGPCN criteria was higher than 70% with high sensitivity of at least one absolute or relative indication for resection. The diagnostic performance of FCG was shown as comparable to EEBGPCN. Nevertheless, the value of false-positive rate for surgical resection showed that in some cases, overtreating patients or treating them too early cannot be prevented. A multidisciplinary approach is essential to adequately select patients for the resection considering at the same time both the risks of surgery and malignancy.
