Brief Summary

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

Determine the relapse-free survival of resected pancreatic cancer patients following two novel regimens with activity in advanced disease.

Detailed Description

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

This trial is a randomized Phase II study of FOLFIRINOX versus gemcitabine/abraxane in patients with completely resected pancreatic cancer (Stages I-III). Patients will receive eight weeks of chemotherapy, then 5-FU/radiation, then another 8 weeks.
