Neoadjuvant chemoradiation for resectable and borderline resectable pancreatic cancer has been widely investigated in the past two decades. Research demonstrates that this therapy may help improve surgical margins, reduce rates of lymph node positivity, allow for earlier initiation of systemic therapy, and select for patients with aggressive disease in whom surgery may not be warranted. This review presents the data for neoadjuvant chemoradiation in pancreatic cancer with a focus on resectable and borderline resectable disease.
