Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die It is not yet known whether irofulven is effective in treating pancreatic cancer

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of irofulven with that of fluorouracil in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer that has not responded to previous treatment with gemcitabine
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Compare survival of patients with gemcitabine-refractory advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma when treated with irofulven vs fluorouracil II Compare the objective tumor response rate in patients treated with these regimens III Compare the clinical benefit of these regimens as measured by improvement in pain and performance status in these patients

OUTLINE This is a randomized open-label multicenter study Patients are randomized 21 to irofulven and fluorouracil treatment arms Arm I Patients receive irofulven IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 15 Arm II Patients receive fluorouracil IV continuously on days 1-28 Courses repeat every 28 days

PROJECTED ACCRUAL Approximately 350 patients 233 for arm I and 117 for arm II will be accrued for this study
