          2. Patients must have received mFOLFIRINOX or Gemcitabine/ Abraxane based chemotherapy
             for 4 cycles with last dose of therapy between 2-5 weeks of study enrollment.

          3. Age >18 years

          4. No metastatic disease

          5. ECOG Performance Status of 0 to 1

          6. Adequate organ function as defined by study-specified laboratory tests

          2. Patients who have had more than one line of chemotherapy

          3. Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illness, including but not limited to ongoing
             or active infection, systematic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris,
             cardiac arrhythmia or psychiatric condition that would limit compliance with study
             requirements
