Study Description

This clinical study is designed as a prospective, open-label, single arm, phase II study to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Nimotuzumab combined with AG (nab-paclitaxel+ gemcitabine) as postoperative adjuvant therapy in patients with EGFR-positive pancreatic cancer. The main endpoint is disease-free survival (DFS). Additional end points included distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), overall survival (OS), tumor-related markers and safety.
