Anlotinib plus tislelizumab for recurrent metastatic pancreas ductal adenocarcinoma with germline BRCA2 mutation: A case report

While combined immunotherapy and anti-angiogenic therapy have demonstrated efficacy in renal cell carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma, the efficacy of first-line treatment for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) with germline BRCA2 mutation remains unproven. We described a BRCA2-mutated patient with PDAC who presented with posterior cardiac metastasis 8 months after surgery. After receiving four cycles of anlotinib combined with tislelizumab, abdominal CT scans indicated a complete response. The patient sustained this response for over 14 months on the combination regimen, with no reported adverse events. In conclusion, the combination of tislelizumab and anlotinib may offer a viable therapeutic option for recurrent metastatic BRCA2-mutated PDAC.
