Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2009
RATIONALE: Genistein may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving genistein before surgery may be an effective treatment for pancreatic cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying genistein to see how well it works in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery.
