Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpuse of this study is to assess toxicities of angiogenic peptide vaccine therapy with gemcitabine in treating HLA-A\*0201 restricted patient with non-resectable pancreatic cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The prognosis of pancreatic cancer is extremely poor even with extensive surgery, chemotherapy or radiation. It has been required development of new treatment modalities. Immunotherapy is one of the encouraging modalities for cancer patients. The investigators have to assess its toxicities and immune responsiveness.
