Official title
Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Standard Dose Gemcitabine Combined With High Dose Intravenous Vitamin C (HDIVC) Treatment for Patients With Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
* The combination of gemcitabine and HDIVC is safe and may favorably change the clinical course for an individual patient. * The combination of gemcitabine and HDIVC is synergistic in anti-tumor effect as seen in preclinical models, where HDIVC creates a pro-oxidative effect that adds to the anti-tumor effect of gemcitabine. * The combination of gemcitabine and HDIVC may improve Progression Free Survival (PFS). * The dosage schema of 1.2 g /kg bolus infusion followed by lower dose of 0.3 g / kg infusion may create sustained elevation in Vitamin C plasma levels for increased cytotoxic effect. * The addition of HDIVC \& oral supplementation of Vitamin C to standard treatment with gemcitabine may improve quality of life for patients with comparison to prior to treatment start of this protocol. * CA 19-9 and inflammatory markers may show trends for patients in this trial.
