First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-phase study tests whether adding losartan (a blood pressure medicine) to a shorter, higher-dose radiation treatment can help people with pancreatic cancer that is hard to remove surgically. The main goal is to check for side effects and find the safest dose. About 22 adults with borderline resectable or locally advanced pancreatic cancer will receive losartan alongside radiation after standard chemotherapy.
