In this study, we compared these two regimens using Veterans Administration (VA) data and evaluated the use of a novel tumor growth formula to predict outcomes. We identified 670 Veterans from national VA data with unresected stage II-IV pancreatic adenocarcinoma diagnosed between 2003 and 2016 who were treated with either first-line Gem/NabP or FOLFIRINOX. We compared overall survival (OS) and adverse events by treatment using propensity scores (PS) to account for allocation bias. Using longitudinal CA19-9 biomarker information we then fit the data to a novel tumor growth equation, comparing growth with OS. We found no difference in PS-adjusted (hazard ratio [HR] 1.00; 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 0.84-1.20) or PS-matched (HR 0.93; 95% CI 0.76-1.13) OS between the two treatment groups. Tumor growth analysis revealed similar growth parameter values for Gem/NabP and FOLFIRINOX (P = .074 for difference). Gem/NabP appeared noninferior to FOLFIRINOX for survival outcomes for advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma based on national VA data. Biomarker-based growth equations may be useful for monitoring treatment response and predicting prognosis for pancreatic cancer.

Reliable exposure control measures are needed to avoid occupational exposures from hazardous drugs. However, there is little information on blister packages concerning exposure. We investigated the contamination and exposure control methods of lenalidomide. Nine facilities involved wi
