Study Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects of losartan and hypofractionated radiation therapy after chemotherapy in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that may or may not be removed by surgery (borderline resectable) or has spread from its original site of growth to nearby tissues or lymph nodes and is not amenable to surgical resection (locally advanced unresectable). Losartan may improve blood flow and allows for better tissue oxygenation. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Giving losartan and hypofractionated radiation therapy may work better in treating patients with pancreatic cancer compared to hypofractionated radiation therapy alone.

Primary Outcome

A DLT is an event that occurred less than or equal to 84 days of finishing RT, has a possible causal relationship with lstudy treatment, and is one of the following: * Any grade ≥ 4 GI-related event; or * A grade ≥ 3 * Gastric or duodenal ulcer; * Gastric, small bowel, or colonic hemorrhage from areas inside the hdPTV or pPTV; * Gastric or small bowel obstruction or stenosis located to areas inside the hdPTV or pPTV; * Gastrointestinal fistula in areas inside the hdPTV or pPTV; * Gas
