About This Pancreatic Cancer Study in Bakersfield

This phase III trial compares the effect of dose-escalated radiation therapy to usual care in patients with locally advanced unresectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who have received an initial 4-6 months of chemotherapy. Usual care options include additional chemotherapy, observation, or standard lower-dose radiation therapy. These treatments may delay tumor growth but have not been shown to improve survival. Radiation therapy uses high energy X-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors

Who Can Participate

Inclusion Criteria

At time of enrollment, the patient must have received 4-6 months of active chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX (8-12 cycles) or NALIRIFOX (8-12 cycles) or gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel (4-6 cycles) (1 regimen, no sequential chemotherapy). "Active chemotherapy" refers to time on chemotherapy not counting treatment breaks (i.e. if a patient had 1 month of chemotherapy followed by 1 month break, this would count as 1 month chemotherapy). Study registration must occur within 45 days of last day of chemotherapy cycle
BASELINE PRE-ENTRY CHEMOTHERAPY REQUIREMENTS:
Pathologically (histologically or cytologically) proven diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
Locally advanced unresectable disease (as defined per the National Comprehensive Cancer Network \[NCCN\] guidelines and institutional tumor board review)
Patients must have baseline pre-chemotherapy scans for staging. Options include: CT chest/abdomen/pelvis, CT chest/MRI abdomen/pelvis, or CT chest/CT pelvis/MR
