Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients must have biopsy-proven, resected with curative intent cholangiocarcinoma, gallbladder, pancreatic or ampullary adenocarcinoma.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Arm 1 (gemcitabine, docetaxel, 5FU, radiation)

Arm Description

Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 IV on Days 1 and 8 of 21 day cycle for 2 cycles (this starts 4 weeks after radiation) Docetaxel 35 mg/m2 IV on Days 1 and 8 of 21 day cycle for 2 cycles (this starts 4 weeks after radiation)

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of Severe Toxicities
Toxicity was graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) version 2.0

Secondary Outcome Measures

Toxicities Associated With Treatment (Grade 1-2)
Toxicity was graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) version 2.0. The most common grade 1-2 non-hematologic and hematologic toxicities were collected for this outcome.
Toxicities Associated With Treatment (Grade 3-4)
Toxicity was graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) version 2.0. The most common grade 3-4 non-hematologic and hematologic toxicities were collected for this outcome.
Disease Free Survival (DFS) - Median
DFS was defined as the time from the initiation of treatment to relapse or death, whichever occurred first.
Overall Survival (OS) - Median
OS was defined as the time from the initiation of treatment to death from any cause or last follow-up.
Overall Survival (OS)
OS was defined as the time from the initiation of treatment to death from any cause or last follow-up
