Brief Summary:
This study will evaluate the local control rate as well as acute and late toxicity rates of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for the treatment of unresectable pancreatic cancer.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Pancreatic Cancer Radiation: Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

This is a single institution, non-randomized, prospective, phase IV trial of SBRT for unresectable pancreatic cancer.

Data collected will include patient demographics, pathology data, tumor stage, SBRT dose fractionation scheme, dose received by adjacent critical normal tissues, tumor recurrence data, and acute and late toxicities.

Follow up data will be collected during the patient's standard office visits. The anticipated duration of this study is 5 years.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: A
Stereotactic Radiation to Pancreas
 Radiation: Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy
Suggested fractionation is 20-25 Gy / 1 fraction OR 30-36 Gy / 3 fractions (10-12 Gy per fraction) OR 40-45 Gy / 5 fractions (8-9 Gy per fraction)


Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Local Control Rate [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Local recurrence is defined as tumor recurrence within the planning target volume. Local control rate will be evaluated by imaging techniques such as CT or MRI. Local recurrence will be defined as an increase of > 20% in tumor size. If necessary, a Positron Emission Tomography scan may be used to aid in diagnoses of local tumor recurrence.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Late Toxicity Rate [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Toxicities will be graded using CTCAE criteria at specified timepoints.
