NALIRIFOX versus nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine in older patients with treatment-naive metastatic pancreatic cancer: a subgroup analysis of the pivotal NAPOLI 3 trial

NALIRIFOX improved mPDAC survival versus Gem + NabP irrespective of patient age, with no signals for reduced tolerability in the older (versus younger) patients. The results provide reassurance that triplet therapy with NALIRIFOX is an efficacious and tolerable regimen in older treatment-naive patients with mPDAC who were fit enough for inclusion in NAPOLI 3, supporting consideration of its use as 1L therapy in this population.
