Study Arms (2)
EUS-RFA group
EXPERIMENTALPatients in EUS-RFA group will undergo endoscopic ultrasound guided radiofrequency ablation(EUS-RFA ) and chemoradiotherapy
control group
ACTIVE COMPARATORthe control group will receive chemoradiotherapy only
Interventions
Endoscopic ultrasound guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) will be done in 3 different sessions with 2 weeks interval between each session on Day 1, Day 15 and Day 30. Each session will involve multiple applications of EUS-RFA (up to 10) with RF setting of 25 Watts over 90 seconds for each application.
