Summary
The objective of this research is to find out what effects (good and bad), the sequence of Gemcitabine - Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) followed by mFOLFIRINOX, the standard chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer, has on participants and their condition. Gemcitabine - Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) and mFOLFIRINOX has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as first line treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer. The sequence of Gemcitabine - Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) followed by mFOLFIRINOX has not been approved by the FDA for treatment of pancreatic cancer.
Detailed Description
Primary Objective: \- The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of sequential Gemcitabine - Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) followed by mFOLFIRINOX in improving R0 resection rate in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer and locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer. Secondary Objectives: * Evaluate the safety and tolerability of sequential Gemcitabine - Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) followed by mFOLFIRINOX in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer and locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer * Evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) in patients treated with sequential Gemcitabine - Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) followed by mFOLFIRINOX in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer and locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) guidelines * Evaluate overall survival (OS) in patients treated with sequential Gemcitabine - Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) followed by mFOLFIRINOX in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer and locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer * Evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) in patients treated with sequential Gemcitabine - Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) followed by mFOLFIRINOX in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer and locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer. * Evaluate the disease control rate (DCR) in patients treated with Gemcitabine - Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) followed by mFOLFIRINOX in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer and locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer.
