Trial Outcomes

Number of Participants With R0 Resection

The number of participants that received treatment with proton radiation along with FOLFIRINOX-Losartan and then subsequently underwent attempted surgery and achieved R0 resection. R0 resection means that no cancer cells were seen microscopically at the resection margin. (NCT01821729)
Timeframe: At the time of surgery (approximately 4 months after the start of treatment)

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
Experimental Arm34

Progression-Free Survival

"To determine the progression free survival of patients with locally advanced disease who receive FOLFIRINOX-Losartan and proton beam radiation therapy. Disease progression was assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1).~Progressive disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesion, taking as reference the smal lest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions (new lesions must be > slice thickness)." (NCT01821729)
Timeframe: From the start of treatment until death or progression, median duration of 17.5 months
