Conditions

Pancreatic Cancer

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of focused radiation (Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy, SBRT) on patients with pancreatic cancer that will be removed surgically.

Inclusion criteria

* Age \>18 years. * Histologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma of the head and/or body; at least the majority of the histopathologic specimen must be identified as adenocarcinoma. * Pancreatic tumors must be considered resectable at time of treatment planning. Definition of resectable: no metastases, less than 180 degree involvement of superior mesenteric vein or portal vein, no involvement of hepatic artery, superior mesenteric artery or celiac artery * No active infection requiring hospitalization * Adequate labs * Life expectancy \> 3 months. * Patient is to have received chemotherapy prior to enrollment. This will typically consist of 3-4 cycles of chemotherapy. Patients will have a 2 week break between last chemotherapy administration and start of SBRT.

Exclusion criteria

* Presence of metastatic disease. * Infections requiring systemic antibiotic treatment.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Acute (Within 3 Months of Treatment) Grade 3 or Greater Gastrointestinal Toxicity3 monthsAEs were reviewed for gastrointestinal toxicity. Toxicities of note include grade 3 or greater gastritis, enteritis, fistula, or ulcer and any other grade 3 or greater gastrointestinal toxicity.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Late (Greater Than 3 Months After Treatment) Grade 2 Gastritis, Enteritis, Fistula, and Ulcer or Any Other Grade 3 or Greater Gastrointestinal Toxicity1 yearAEs were assessed for gastrointestinal toxicity. Toxicities of note include grade 2 or greater gastritis, enteritis, fistula, or ulcer and any other grade 3 or greater gastrointestinal toxicity.
Local Progression Free Survival1 yearLocal tumor progression will be defined as \>=20% increased size on CT scan compared to a CT. scan from prior to treatment. Distant progression will be defined as any new tumor found outside of the pancreas or periampullary region on CT scan. Local and/or distant progression will be evaluated by both PET/CT (if available) and CT scan as deemed by treating physician.
