Primary outcomePrimary: To Assess Progression-free Survival of RAD001 at Two Months in Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Whose Disease Has Progressed on Gemcitabine Chemotherapy. — 23 participants — p=0.10

Summary

The purpose of this research study is to investigate if RAD001 is an effective treatment for pancreatic cancer that has spread and not responded to treatment. Experiments have shown that RAD001 can prevent cells from multiplying. RAD002 has also been tested in laboratory experiments imitating cancer conditions and the results have been promising.
