Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To compare resectability rates and resection status (R0) in borderline respectable pancreatic cancer <br/ ><br>(BRPC) between SBRT and chemo radiation. <br/ ><br>To determine local progression free survival (LPFS) in locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC)Timepoint: 3months after completion of treatment
Secondary Outcome Measures
