Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells Gemcitabine may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy Combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy after surgery may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining gemcitabine with radiation therapy in treating patients who have undergone surgery to remove cancer of the pancreas
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the time to disease progression local control and survival of patients with previously resected pancreatic cancer treated with adjuvant gemcitabine and radiotherapy

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients receive gemcitabine IV over 30-60 minutes on days 1 4 8 11 15 18 22 25 29 and 32 and undergo radiotherapy on days 1-5 8-12 15-19 22-26 29-33 and 36-38 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Beginning at least 4 weeks after chemoradiotherapy patients without disease progression and with less than 10 weight loss during study receive additional gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 8 and 15 Treatment repeats every 28 days for a total of 2 courses

Patients are followed every 8 weeks for 6 months and then every 3 months for up to 2 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 72 patients will be accrued for this study within 22 or 34 years
