Propensity score analysis of adjuvant therapy in radically resected gallbladder cancers: A real world experience from a regional cancer center

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Backgrounds/Aims: Given the high mortality associated with gallbladder cancer (GBC), the efficacy of adjuvant therapy (AT) remains controversial. We audited our data over an 11-year period to assess the impact of AT. Methods: This study included all patients who underwent curative resection for GBC from 2007 to 2017. Analyses were conducted of clinicopathological characteristics, surgical details, and postoperative therapeutic records. The benefits of adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) or chemoradiotherapy (CTRT) were evaluated against surgery alone using SPSS version 20 for statistical analysis. Results: > 0.05). Conclusions: Radically resected GBC patients appear to benefit more from adjuvant CT, while CTRT should be reserved for cases with high-risk features.
