The mean urine pH was significantly higher after the alkalization therapy (6.85 +- 0.74 vs. 6.39 +- 0.92; p < 0.05).
The median overall survival from the start of alkalization therapy of the patients with high urine pH (< 7.0) was significantly longer than those with low urine pH (<= 7.0)(16.1 vs. 4.7 months; p < 0.05).

The patients analyzed included 15 men and 13 women, and the mean age at the start of the alkalization therapy was 63.6 (range, 47 to 82) years. Daily living ability of each patient was evaluated according to the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group scale of Performance Status (PS). Two patients had PS 0, 24 had PS 1, and 1 each had PS 2 and 3. Nineteen patients were clinical stage IV and 9 had recurrent disease. Twenty-three patients had received chemotherapy before their first visit to our clinic, whereas 5 had not. Twenty out of the 28 patients took supplementary bicarbonate. Patient characteristics are presented in Table 1.
A total of 50 patients with metastatic or recurrent pancreatic cancer were treated at the Karasuma Wada Clinic between April 2015 and December 2017. Alkalization therapy was initiated in all patients. If patients refused to follow an alkaline diet owing to their dietary preference, they were excluded from the study population. Therefore, 22 patients who did not follow the alkalization therapy or visited our clinic less than 3 times were excluded from the study. Finally, 28 pancreatic cancer patients who were given alkalization therapy together with chemotherapy were analyzed.
no special notes
Data were analyzed on June 30, 2019. The mean urine pH of each patient was compared using the paired t-test between before and after alkalization therapy. OS from either the time of diagnosis or recurrence and the start of alkalization therapy was calculated using Kaplan-Meier estimates, and compared between patients with a urine pH of 7.0 or less and those with a urine pH of higher than 7.0. OS from the start of the alkalization therapy was also compared between patients with a urine delta-pH of 1.0 or less and those with a urine delta-pH of more than 1.0. OS from the time of initiation of the alkalization therapy were also compared among patients with a urine delta-pH of 0 or less, those with a delta-pH of more than 0 but less than or equal to 1.0, and those with a delta-pH of more than 1.0. Urine delta-pH was calculated by subtracting the mean urine pH before alkalization therapy from the mean urine pH after alkalization therapy. Mean data set values were presented with +- standard deviation. All p-values were two-sided and p-values of less than 0.05 were considered to indicate a statistically significant difference between two groups.

This study was retrospectively conducted to investigate the effect of alkalization therapy on chemotherapy in advanced pancreatic cancer patients. Currently, data analysis is in progress.
In addition, this study is comprehensively included in "Investigation for survival factors of cancer patients analyzed by the data science method" approved by IRB of the JMTO.
