View:

• Patient is ≥18 years of age and has histologically or cytologically confirmed localized adenocarcinoma of the pancreas that is potentially resectable. Patients with islet cell or other neuroendocrine neoplasms are excluded.

• Definition of localized, potentially resectable disease: a) Adequate CT or MRI to determine staging and eligibility based on radiologic interpretation. b) No extension to superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and hepatic artery. Patent superior mesenteric vein/portal vein (SMV/PV) with \< 180-degree abutment and no evidence of invasion. c) Clear fat plane between the SMA and celiac axis. d) No extension to celiac axis and hepatic artery. e) Patent superior mesenteric vein and portal vein. f) No evidence of distant metastatic disease 3. If a female patient is of childbearing potential, she must have a negative urine pregnancy test documented within 72 hours of first intervention. 4. Fertile participants must use contraception considered adequate and appropriate as stated in Appendix 3 (pages 61-62).

⁃ 5\. Male participants: A male participant must agree to use contraception as detailed in Appendix 3 of this protocol during the treatment period and for at least 220 days after the last dose of study treatment and refrain from donating sperm during this period.

⁃ 6\. Patient must not have received prior chemotherapy or radiation for pancreatic cancer. 7. Patient has an ECOG performance status PS 0-1. 8. Patient has been informed about the nature of the study, and has agreed to participate in the study, and signed the Informed Consent Form before participation in any study-related activities.

⁃ 9\. A female participant is eligible to participate if:

⁃ a. Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) as defined in Appendix 3 (pages 61-62). OR b. A WOCBP who is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and agreeing to use proper contraception defined by the protocol (Appendix 3 \[pages 61 - 62\] and Table 18 \[page 63\]) for at least 160 days after the last dose of study treatment.

⁃ 10\. Have adequate organ function as defined in the following table (Table 3). Specimens must be collected within 14 days before the start of interventions.

⁃ Hematological Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1500/μL Platelets ≥100 000/μL Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL or ≥5.6 mmol/La Renal Creatinine OR Measured or calculated creatinine clearance (GFR can also be used in place of creatinine or CrCl) ≤1.5 × ULN OR ≥30 mL/min for participant with creatinine levels \>1.5 × institutional ULN Hepatic Total bilirubin ≤1.5 ×ULN OR direct bilirubin ≤ULN for participants with total bilirubin levels \>1.5 × ULN AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) ≤2.5 × ULN (≤5 × ULN for participants with liver metastases) Coagulation International normalized ratio (INR) OR prothrombin time (PT) Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) ≤1.5 × ULN unless participant is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or aPTT is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants
