Summary

1.1 Primary Objective

To evaluate the effects of short course preoperative erlotinib treatment in a panel of predictive biomarkers from a group of patients who undergo resection of pancreatic adenocarcinoma with curative intent.

1.2 Secondary Objectives

1.2.1 To analyze the effects of short course preoperative erlotinib treatment followed by postoperative erlotinib-gemcitabine therapy in the disease-free survival of patients who undergo curative intent resection of pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

1.2.2 To evaluate secondary endpoints of disease response such as duration of overall survival and patterns of recurrence for patients with resectable pancreatic cancer who undergo this treatment regimen.

1.2.3 To evaluate the plasma pharmacokinetics of erlotinib in pancreatic cancer patients both in the preoperative and postoperative setting, and to explore correlations between plasma and tumor erlotinib concentrations.

1.2.4 To develop a clinically relevant predictive assay of response to erlotinib based on selected biomarkers in endoscopic ultrasound-fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) specimens when it can be obtained at the time of pancreatic cancer diagnosis in chemotherapy-naive patients.
