NALIRIFOX and Radiation for Pancreatic Cancer

This study is testing a combination of treatments for people with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), a type of pancreatic cancer that is locally advanced or borderline resectable (meaning it's close to important blood vessels). Researchers want to see if giving the chemotherapy drug NALIRIFOX along with radiation therapy (AD-XRT) and another chemotherapy drug called capecitabine before surgery is effective. This approach is called total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT). The study will also look at how well this treatment sequence works, if it causes few or mild side effects, and how it affects your quality of life. You may be able to join if you are 18 or older and meet other health criteria.

Study design
This study plans to enroll 60 participants. It is an interventional study, meaning participants will receive a specific treatment.
What's involved
You would receive NALIRIFOX for 4 months, given on days 1 and 15 of a 4-week cycle. After NALIRIFOX, you would receive AD-XRT and capecitabine for a period of time.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The study will measure event-free survival (EFS) for up to 16 weeks after treatment.
