Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Adenocarcinoma of the pancreas
* Prior therapy with ≥ 1 prior systemic therapy over a period of at least 2 months (eg, at least two 4-week cycles of a regimen such as gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel; or at least four 2-week cycles of a regimen such as FOLFOX, FOLFIRINOX, or FOLFIRI) -Candidate for additional therapy consisting of radiation with gemcitabine- radiosensitization.
* Able to initiate study treatment no later than 9 weeks from last dose of any antineoplastic component of prior therapy regimen.
* Recovery from ≥ grade 2 toxicities of prior therapy regimen to grade 1 or baseline, with the exception of anemia and lymphopenia and chronic residual toxicities that in the opinion of the investigator are not clinically relevant given the known safety/toxicity profiles of gemicitabine, sorafenib, and vorinostat (eg, alopecia, changes in pigmentation, stable endocrinopathies). Patients with ≤ grade 2 peripheral sensory or motor neuropathy are eligible..
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1
* Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \<= 3 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for the laboratory
* Total bilirubin \<= 1.5 x ULN for the laboratory at the time of enrollment, all forms of biliary stents allowed
* Creatinine clearance \>= 45 mL/min as calculated by the standard Cockcroft-Gault equation using age, actual weight, creatinine and gender
* International normalized ratio (INR) \<= 1.5
* Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>= 1,500/mm\^3
* Platelets \>= 100,000/mm\^3 (may not be transfused to meet this level for enrollment)
* Measurable or evaluable disease by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) (version \[v\]1.1
* Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document
* Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test performed within 7 days prior to the start of treatment
* Women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use a medically accepted form of birth control during the treatment and for 2 months following completion of study treatment
Exclusion Criteria:
* Prior radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer
* Prior surgical resection of pancreatic cancer
* Evidence of metastatic disease
* Any investigational agent within 4 weeks of study treatment initiation
* Diagnosis or treatment for another malignancy within 3 years of enrollment, with the exception of complete resection of basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, any in situ malignancy, or low-risk prostate cancer after curative therapy
* Intolerance of protocol agents as follows:
* Known or presumed intolerance of gemcitabine, vorinostat or sorafenib
* Experienced any of the following toxicities with prior gemcitabine adminstration (if given): capillary leak syndrome, posterior reversible encephalopathy, hemolytic uremic syndrome, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, unexplained dyspnea or other evidence of severe pulmonary toxicity, or severe hepatic toxicity
* Unable to swallow medication
* Suspected malabsorption or obstruction; note: use of pancreatic enzyme supplements is allowed to control malabsorption
* Contraindication to antiangiogenic agents, including:
* Bronchopulmonary hemorrhage/bleeding event \>= grade 2 (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events \[CTCAE\] v4.0) within 12 weeks prior to of treatment
* Any other hemorrhage/bleeding event \>= grade 3 (CTCAE v4.0) within 12 weeks prior to initiation of treatment
* Serious non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture
* Arterial thrombotic or embolic events such as a myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attacks) within the 6 months prior to initiation of treatment. Incidental clinically insignificant embolic phenomena that do not require anti-coagulants are not excluded. Also,tumor-associated thrombus of locally-involved vessels does not count as an exclusion criterion.
* Clinically significant cardiac disease, including major cardiac dysfunction, such as uncontrolled angina, clinical congestive heart failure with New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV, ventricular arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy, recent (within 6 months) myocardial infarction or unstable coronary artery disease
* Concomitant use of other histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors
* Planned ongoing administration of STRONG cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily A, polypeptide 4 (CYP3A4) inducers. Examples of clinical inducers and classifications of strong, moderate, and weak interactions are available through the FDA website (Table 3-3 of website): http://www.fda.gov/Drugs/DevelopmentApprovalProcess/DevelopmentResources/DrugInteractionsLabeling/ucm093664.htm
* Persistent heart rate (HR) \< 50 or \> 120 beats per minute (bpm).
* QT(c) ≥ 481 ms (\>= grade 2) on electrocardiogram (ECG) prior to initiation of treatment
* If baseline QTc on screening ECG meets exclusion criteria:
* Check potassium and magnesium serum levels
* Correct any identified hypokalemia and/or hypomagnesemia and repeat ECG to confirm exclusion of patient due to QTc
* For patients with HR \>60 of \>100 beats per minute (bpm), no manual read of QTc is required
* For patients with baseline HR \< 60 or \> 100 bpm, manual read of QT by cardiologist is required, with Fridericia correction applied to determine QTc
* Planned ongoing treatment with other drugs thought to potentially adversely interact with study drugs; if such medications have been used, patients must be off of these agents for \>= 2 weeks prior to initiation of treatment:
* Anticoagulants at therapeutic doses
* Immunosuppressants such as tacrolimus, leflunomide or tofacitinib, roflumilast, pimecrolimus
* Serious uncontrolled infection \> grade 2 (CTCAE v4.0)
* Medical, psychological, or social conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, may increase the patient's risk or interfere with the patient's participation in the study or hinder evaluation of the study results
