A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL OF PROSTATAK® AS ADJUVANT TO UP-FRONT RADIATION THERAPY FOR LOCALIZED PROSTATE CANCER
This randomized phase II trial studies how well fluorouracil, irinotecan hydrochloride, and oxaliplatin (combination chemotherapy) works and compares to gemcitabine hydrochloride and paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation before surgery in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, irinotecan…
