Abstract Aim This study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of a multidisciplinary approach incorporating neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy with S1 (S1‐NACRT) for resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Methods The medical records of 132 patients who received S1‐NACRT for resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma from 2010 to 2019 were reviewed. The S1‐NACRT regimen consisted of S1 at a dose of 80‐120 mg/body/day together with 1.8 Gy of radiation in 28 fractions. The patients were re‐evaluated 4 weeks after S1‐NACRT completion, and a pancreatectomy was then considered. Results Adverse events of S1‐NACRT ≥grade 3 occurred in 22.7% of the patients, and 1.5% discontinued therapy. Of the 112 patients who underwent a pancreatectomy, 109 underwent R0 resection. Adjuvant chemotherapy with relative dose intensity ≥50% was administered to 74.1% of the patients who underwent resection. The median overall survival of all patients was 47 months, and the median overall survival and recurrence‐free survival of patients who underwent resection was 71 and 32 months, respectively. According to the multivariate analyses of prognostic factors for overall survival in patients who underwent resection, negative margin status (hazard ratio: 0.182; P = 0.006) and relative dose intensity of adjuvant chemotherapy ≥50% (hazard ratio 0.294; P < 0.001) were independent prognostic factors of overall survival. Conclusions A multidisciplinary approach incorporating S1‐NACRT for resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma demonstrated acceptable tolerability and good local control and resulted in comparable survival benefits.
