Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Hydration with a saline solution may protect kidney cells from the side effects of chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of glufosfamide with or without hydration in treating patients who have pancreatic cancer that is metastatic or cannot be removed by surgery.
