  • Patients with non-fasting blood glucose \> 160 mg/dL must have a fasting blood glucose ≤ 160 mg/dL to be eligible

  • Not pregnant or nursing
  • Negative serum or urine pregnancy test
  • No malignancy (other than non-melanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix) diagnosed within the past 3 years or any currently active malignancy
  • A malignancy is considered not "active" if all anti-cancer therapies were completed \> 3 years before enrollment and there is no current evidence of persistent disease
  • No neurosensory or neuromotor toxicity ≥ grade 2
  • No known allergy to platinum compounds or E. coli-derived products (e.g., filgrastim, humulin, insulin, or L-asparaginase)
  • No colonic or small bowel disorders with uncontrolled symptoms at baseline (for example, \> 3 watery or soft stools daily in patients without colostomy or ileostomy)
  • Patients with colostomy or ileostomy can be enrolled at the discretion of the investigator
  • No history of stroke, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, or ventricular arrhythmia requiring medication or mechanical control within 6 months of registration

  • Anti-retroviral therapy must be discontinued during study treatment
  • No known positivity for chronic infection with B virus (HBV)
  • PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
  • Prior treatment with chemotherapy or radiotherapy for resected, locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer is NOT allowed
  • No prior treatment with inhibitors of the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor
  • No prior treatment with radiotherapy to greater than 25% of bone marrow
  • Palliative radiation therapy may NOT be administered while a subject is on the study
  • No major surgery within 4 weeks of the start of study treatment
  • Patients must have recovered from the side effects of any major surgery at the start of study treatment
  • Major surgery is defined as those surgeries that require general anesthesia
  • Insertion of a vascular access device or endobiliary stent is NOT considered major surgery
  • No percutaneous biliary drain (endobiliary stents are allowed)
  • Warfarin for INR goal \> 1.5 is prohibited
  • Patients on warfarin with INR goal of ≤ 1.5 are eligible
  • Hormones or other chemotherapeutic agents may NOT be administered except for steroids given for adrenal failure; hormones administered for non-disease-related conditions (e.g., insulin for diabetes); and intermittent use of dexamethasone as an antiemetic or for the prevention or treatment of ganitumab infusion reactions
  • Patients receiving anti-retroviral therapy must discontinue such therapy while receiving study treatment
