Yeah that is a good one Poods, That's one I posted Sunday. And there's another case study another below.

A 3-year disease free survival in a patient with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma following folfirinox chemotherapy: A case report.

"Complete response is a rare outcome in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer. . . In our patient, a complete response was achieved after 35 cycles of FOLFIRINOX over 16 months. . .

To our knowledge, we present the first case of a patient with metastatic non-resectable adenocarcinoma of the exocrine pancreas to achieve a complete response and continues to be on a 3-year disease free survival after monotherapy with FOLFIRINOX."

-------------------

This patient was also on chemo for years before the CR. This group used gemcitabine with other agents including platinum.

"The journey from diagnosis to remission in this patient took 4 years of persistent chemotherapy treatment."

------------------

Here's one on Folfirinox with a twist.

" (a patient) who achieved a complete response after initial chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX followed by maintenance chemotherapy with irinotecan, leucovorin, and 5-fluorouracil (FOLFIRI) and who has not yet recurred after 3 years from the initial diagnosis of metastatic disease."
