Assessing the Efficacy and Safety of IV Vitamin C in Combination With Standard Chemotherapy for Pancreatic Ca

Intravenous high dose ascorbic acid is a widely used alternative cancer treatment. Patients will receive standard care gemcitabine/erlotinib for treatment of their metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. They will be closely monitored for disease response/ progression. If vitamin C has a beneficial effect on tumour cells, patients may experience a regression of tumor or tumor markers. Additional benefits include scans at no charge to the patient. This study requires several days of treatment per week and treatments are given in two different locations. The intravenous vitamin C treatments are given 3 times per week, these are given every week for an initial cycle of 15 weeks.
