Brief summary public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

This pilot clinical trial studies 6,8-bis(benzylthio)octanoic acid in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as 6,8-bis(benzylthio)octanoic acid, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.

Detailed description public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine initial estimates of overall survival (OS). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine response rate. II. To determine progression free survival (PFS). OUTLINE: Patients receive 6,8-bis(benzylthio)octanoic acid intravenously (IV) over 2 hours on days 1-5 of week 1 (pre-course 1 only), days 1 and 4 of weeks 2 and 3 (course 1 only), and days 1 and 4 of weeks 1-3 (courses 2-6). Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
