| With Pancreatic Cancer using Gemzar as the chemo. What chemo drug is used with radiation?
5FU (fluorouracil), either IV or oral (as Xeloda or capecitabine) can be used concurrently with radiation. Gemcitabine (Gemzar) has been used as well in various doses, though toxicities can be considerably more difficult to predict, as that drug is a more potent radiosensitizing agent. It is generally done on a clinical trial.Good luck, best wishes, God bless
