Summary
This study is for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It tests a new approach: giving two chemotherapy drugs (nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine) at the same time as a precise, high-dose type of radiation called proton therapy. The main goal is to find the safest dose of the chemotherapy when used with this radiation. Participants will receive proton therapy every weekday for three weeks and chemotherapy once a week during that time.
