Eligibility
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
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Participants With Acute (Within 3 Months of Treatment) Grade 3 or Greater Gastrointestinal Toxicity | 3 months | AEs 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
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 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 Toxicity | 1 year | AEs 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 Survival | 1 year | Local 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. |
