Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Gemcitabine, Nab-Paclitaxel

Arm Description

A conformal phase I study using 3 plus 3 method. Chemoradiotherapy while Gemcitabine, Nab-Paclitaxel are administered. Both Gemcitabine and Nab-Paclitaxel are an interventional agents in this arm. Gemcitabine is administered with 30 min intravenous infusion on day 1,8 and 15 every 4 weeks. Nab-Paclitaxel is administered with 30 min intravenous infusion on day 1,8 and 15 every 4 weeks. Radiotherapy (a total dose of 50.4Gy) was delivered in 28 fractions.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical safety and efficacy of Gemcitabine plus nab-Paclitaxel chemoradiotherapy and to determine the Maximal Tolerated Dose (MTD) for unresectable locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
Detailed Description
Gemcitabine plus nab-Paclitaxel is one of the standard chemotherapy for metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Gemcitabine plus nab-Paclitaxel realize the favorable anti-tumor effect and tolerable toxicity. Gemcitabine plus nab-Paclitaxel is a promising regimen for concurrent chemoradiotherapy, but the investigators need to know the safety in the case of the concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
