NCT03273374

Brief Summary

This phase II study is designed to investigate the efficacy of IORT for patients with resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The purpose of the study is to show the local recurrence rate after surgical resection and IORT is superior to that of surgical resection alone from the historical control. A total of 42 patients will be enrolled, and these patients will receive IORT of 10 Gy at 5 millimeter depth of the tumor bed, followed by 6 cycles of adjuvant gemcitabine chemotherapy.
