Pancreatic Cancer spread to the liver: What's next?

Hello ken240,
I'm in a similar situation. Distal/splenectomy followed by 5FU for 6 months; spread to my liver and abdominal peritoneal area. I recently started gem-abraxane-cis, but based on how aggressive my type is, I don't expect full containment. My hope is when it proves unsuccessful that I'm strong enough to enter a clinical trial. I switched my care this year from Hoag to UCLA (though UCLA asked me to get my chemo sessions at their facility in Orange County).
There are some new clinical trials starting. Has your dr. suggested you try a clinical trial?

I am also being treated at UCLA. I was asked to sign up for the following clinical trials:

One day at a time, best we can do

Yes, the oncologist first suggested clinical trials back in late October. Travel during winter (I am in New England) and time commitment dissuaded me, but I still research possible trials closer to home.
