Summary

This study is for people with pancreatic cancer that can be surgically removed. It tests whether giving chemotherapy and radiation before surgery helps surgeons remove all cancer cells more completely. About 30 adults will receive the drugs gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel plus targeted radiation, then surgery, then more chemo. The goal is to improve long-term survival and reduce cancer return.
