Overview
Depending on the extent of the tumor at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis is generally regarded as poor, with complete remission extremely rare.[1]
Natural History, Complications and Prognosis
Natural History
- The symptoms of (disease name) usually develop in the first/ second/ third decade of life, and start with symptoms such as ___.
- The symptoms of (disease name) typically develop ___ years after exposure to ___.
- If left untreated, [#]% of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].
Complications
- Common complications of [disease name] include:
- [Complication 1]
- [Complication 2]
- [Complication 3]
Prognosis
- The primary factors that influence prognosis are:
- Whether the tumor is localized and can be completely resected
- Whether the tumor has spread to lymph nodes or elsewhere
- Staging and TNM (tumour, lymph node, metastasis) classification related to incidence, treatment, and prognosis: [2]
| Staging and TNM Classification related to Incidence, Treatment, and Prognosis | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Stage | TNM Classification | Clinical Classification | Incidence at diagnosis (%) | 5-year survival rate (%) |
| 0 | Tis, N0, M0 | Resectable | 7.5 | 15.2 |
| IA | T1, N0, M0 | — | — | — |
| IB | T2, N0, M0 | — | — | — |
| IIA | T3, N0, M0 | — | — | — |
| IIB | T1-3, N1, M0 | Locally advanced | 29.3 | 6.3 |
| III | T4, any N, M0 | — | — | — |
| IV | Any T, any N, M1 | Metastatic | 47.2 | 1.6 |
5-Year Survival
- For patients with localized disease and small cancers (<2 cm) with no lymph node metastases and no extension beyond the capsule of the pancreas, complete surgical resection is associated with an actuarial 5-year survival rate of 18% to 24%.
- Between 2007 and 2010, the 5-year relative survival of patients with pancreatic cancer was 7.2%.[3]
- When stratified by age, the 5-year relative survival of patients with pancreatic cancer was 10% and 4.6% for patients <65 and ≥ 65 years of age respectively.[3]
- The survival of patients with pancreatic cancer varies with the stage of the disease. Shown below is a table depicting the 5-year relative survival by the stage of pancreatic cancer:[3]
| Stage | 5-year relative survival (%), (2004-2010) |
| All stages | 6.7% |
| Localized | 25.8% |
| Regional | 9.9% |
| Distant | 2.3% |
| Unstaged | 4.4% |
Shown below is an image depicting the 5-year conditional relative survival (probability of surviving in the next 5-years given the cohort has already survived 0, 1, 3 years) between 1988 and 2010 of pancreatic cancer by stage at diagnosis according to SEER. These graphs are adapted from SEER: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program of the National Cancer Institute.[3]
