Immunotherapy to Attack a Common Pancreatic Cancer Mutation
Researchers are testing a type of immunotherapy to attack a variant of the KRAS mutation; KRAS mutations occur in almost all pancreatic cancers.
Testing a New Drug to Attack Pancreatic Tumor Blood Vessels
A clinical trial is testing a new drug combination that damages the tumor blood vessels and allows chemotherapy drugs to enter the tumor.
A New Drug to Target Cancer Cell Enzymes
In patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer, researchers are comparing FOLFIRINOX, the standard treatment, with FOLFIRINOX plus CPI-613, a new drug…
Immunotherapy for Advanced Pancreatic Cancer and Other Solid Tumors
Researchers are testing the use of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, a type of immunotherapy, against advanced pancreatic cancer.
Targeting Cancer-Associated Wasting With Experimental Immunotherapy
Wasting, or cachexia, is the focus of a clinical trial testing a cachexia immunotherapy treatment combined with standard pancreatic cancer treatment.
Combining Immunotherapy and Targeted Therapy for Pancreatic Cancer
Researchers are combining immunotherapy and targeted therapy in a clinical trial for pancreatic cancer patients on platinum-based chemotherapy.
Finding a Safe Dose of a New Drug for Some Types of Solid Tumors
LMB-100 is a lab-created protein that targets mesothelin. It is being tested against pancreatic cancer and other solid tumors in a clinical trial.
Targeting Tumor Proteins Specific to Pancreatic Cancer Cells
