This trial is for adults with borderline-resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who have not received chemotherapy or radiation for it.

The idea: NALIRIFOX combines liposomal irinotecan, oxaliplatin, leucovorin and fluorouracil before surgery. Irinotecan, oxaliplatin and fluorouracil interfere with cancer-cell DNA or its production. Treatment uses four to eight two-week cycles, then surgery and up to four further cycles. Researchers examine how much cancer remains in removed tissue.

This phase 2 study plans 20 patients. Christos Fountzilas leads it at Roswell Park in Buffalo, the single recruiting US site.
