PURPOSE This non-randomized phase II trial is studying giving weekly doses of paclitaxel oxaliplatin leucovorin and 5-fluorouracil together as second or third-line therapy in treating patient with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas following demonstrated progression after first-line gemcitabine
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

The primary objective is to determine the effectiveness the chemotherapy combination in improving the experience of those with advanced pancreatic cancer in
