The American Cancer Society estimates that 31,860 patients will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in the United States in 2004, and approximately 31,270 patients will die from the disease. Only 15 – 20 percent of newly diagnosed patients are eligible for surgery, which is typically followed by radiation and chemotherapy. Patients with inoperable pancreatic cancer are treated with radiation and chemotherapy, or in the case of advanced disease, chemotherapy alone as the advantages of radiation are reduced. The only currently approved drug for the treatment of pancreatic cancer, Gemzar, has demonstrated median survival of less than six months.
