Perioperative Chemotherapy

for Pancreatic Cancer

This phase III trial compares perioperative chemotherapy (given before and after surgery) versus adjuvant chemotherapy (given after surgery) for the treatment of pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery (removable/resectable). Chemotherapy drugs, such as fluorouracil, irinotecan, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy before and after surgery (perioperatively) may work better in treating patients with pancreatic cancer compared to giving chemotherapy after surgery (adjuvantly).

Glufosfamide vs Fluorouracil

for Pancreatic Cancer

This trial is testing if the chemotherapy drug glufosfamide can help people with advanced pancreatic cancer live longer. These patients have already tried another treatment called gemcitabine, which didn't work for them. Glufosfamide aims to stop cancer cells from growing by damaging their DNA.

Blood Sample Collection

for Cancer Detection

This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer and without cancer to evaluate tests for early cancer detection. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with and without cancer to study in the laboratory may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of cancers.
