Brief Summary

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

This phase II study is designed to investigate the efficacy of intraoperative radiotherapy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with resectable pancreatic cancer. The purpose of the study is to show the local recurrence rate after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and IORT is superior to that of surgical resection alone from the historical control. A total of 80 patients will be enrolled, and these patients will receive IORT of 10 Gy at 5 millimeter depth of the tumor bed, following neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

IORT group

Intraoperative radiation therapy of 10 Gy delivered during surgery followed by adjuvant gemcitabine chemotherapy

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

intraoperative radiotherapy, IORT

Intervention Type RADIATION

A dose of 10 Gy is prescribed to be irradiated at a depth of 5 mm from the surface of the applicator, and the radiation oncologist determines the exact irradiation time. The irradiation time may take 20 to 60 minutes depending on the size of the applicator, and the exact irradiation time is calculated after checking the quality assurance of the radiation generator before treatment every day.
