sustained worsening in any of the parameters. Sustained worsening was
defined as four
consecutive weeks with either an increase in pain intensity or
analgesic consumption or a
20 point decrease in performance status occurring during the first 12
weeks of therapy.
Or
2. The patient was stable on all aforementioned parameters and showed
a marked
sustained weight gain (greater than or equal to 7% increase maintained
for greater than
or equal to four weeks), not due to fluid accumulation.
The first study was a multicentre, prospective, single blinded, two
arm, randomised
comparison of gemcitabine and FU in patients with locally advanced or
metastatic
pancreatic cancer who had received no prior treatment with
chemotherapy. FU was
administered intravenously at a weekly dose of 600 mg/m
2
for 30 minutes. The results
for this randomised trial are shown in TABLE 1. Compared to FU,
patients treated with
gemcitabine had statistically significant increases in symptomatic
improvement, survival
and time to progressive disease (23.8% versus 4.8%).
