Abstract Background Disulfidptosis, a novel form of metabolism-related regulated cell death, is promising intervention for cancer therapeutic intervention. Although aberrant expression long‐chain noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) has been associated with pancreatic carcinoma (PC) development, the biological properties and prognostic potential disulfidptosis-related lncRNAs (DRLs) remain unclear. Methods We obtained RNA-seq data, clinical genomic mutations PC from TCGA database, then determined DRLs. developed risk score model analyzed role in predictive ability, immune infiltration, immunotherapy response, drug sensitivity. Results finally established including three DRLs (AP005233.2, FAM83A-AS1, TRAF3IP2-AS1). According to Kaplan–Meier curve analysis, survival time patients low-risk group was significantly longer than that high-risk group. Based on enrichment significant associations between metabolic processes differentially expressed genes were assessed two groups. In addition, we observed differences tumor microenvironment landscape. Tumor Immune Dysfunction Rejection (TIDE) analysis showed no statistically likelihood evasion both Patients exhibiting high mutation burden (TMB) had poorest times, while those falling into low TMB categories best prognosis. Moreover, identified by 3-DRLs profile Conclusions Our proposed 3-DRLs-based feature could serve as tool predicting prognosis, landscape, treatment response patients, thus facilitating optimal decision-making.
