Hello, is the adjuvant chemo you did a part of a trial? Not sure I have heard of that for pancreatic cancer. Do you mind sharing where your doctors are located?

Not a trial- just what my oncologist and surgeon decided.
My surgeon was Dr Mark Talamonti in Evanston, IL. He is the head of the dept at North Shore and used to be the head ar Northwestern Univ. He is absolutely wonderful. My oncologist is in Elgin (closer to home) but worked with Dr T and the North Shore oncology team to determine the best adjuvant chemo to use. I highly recommend North Shore… they are one of the top 2 in the Chicago area for the number of Whipple surgeries they perform. Everyone at that hospital was fantastic!
