Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as gemcitabine fluorouracil and cisplatin work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells Giving more than one drug combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells It is not yet known which treatment regimen is more effective for pancreatic cancer

PURPOSE This randomized phase III trial is studying gemcitabine fluorouracil cisplatin and radiation therapy to see how well they work compared to gemcitabine alone in treating patients with nonmetastatic pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Compare the overall survival of patients with nonresectable nonmetastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas treated with gemcitabine hydrochloride with vs without fluorouracil cisplatin and radiotherapy followed by gemcitabine hydrochloride

Secondary

Compare the toxicities of these regimens in these patients
Compare the objective response complete partial or stable in patients treated with these regimens
Compare the clinical benefit in terms of general condition and weight maintenance in patients treated with these regimens

OUTLINE This is a randomized multicenter study Patients are stratified according to WHO performance status 0 or 1 vs 2 initial treatment laparotomy with or without bilio-digestive diversion yes vs no and peritoneal cytology positive vs negative Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive cisplatin IV over 15 minutes on days 1-5 and 29-33 and fluorouracil IV continuously on days 1-40 Patients also undergo radiotherapy daily 5 days a week for 6 weeks
Arm II Patients receive gemcitabine hydrochloride IV over 15 minutes on day 1 Treatment repeats every 7 days for 7 weeks

Beginning in week 11 of arm I or week 9 of arm II patients receive gemcitabine hydrochloride IV over 15 minutes on days 1 8 and 15 Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for up to 10 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

After completion of study therapy patients are followed periodically

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 190 patients will be accrued for this trial
