Pancreatic Cancer

Induction chemotherapy may allow investigators to biologically select patients with a favorable prognosis who benefit most from chemoradiotherapy.

The retrospective study is the largest to evaluate the relationship between dose-averaged LET profiles and local control after CIRT for pancreatic cancer.

Data from the PANOVA-3 trial may support the concomitant use of TTFields plus standard of care in solid tumors across different therapeutic settings.

The independent data monitoring committee confirmed the favorable safety profile of ELI-002 7P for the treatment of PDAC in the phase 1/2 AMPLIFY-7P trial.

Results from a phase 1/2a trial supported the designation for VS-7375 in those with PDAC harboring a KRAS G12D mutation.

Results from the phase 3 CABINET trial demonstrated a clear progression-free survival benefit with cabozantinib vs placebo in patients with well-differentiated pNET/epNET.

Quemliclustat plus gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy outperformed median OS benchmarks in patients with metastatic PDAC.

Explore the latest advancements in pancreatic cancer treatment, focusing on genetic mutations, targeted therapies, and emerging clinical strategies.

Findings from the phase 2b ASCEND trial will be presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology Gastrointestinal Cancers Congress on July 2, 2025.

Elraglusib plus gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel demonstrated a median OS of 12.5 months vs 8.5 months with chemotherapy alone in patients with PDAC.

Stereotactic online adaptive magnetic resonance–guided radiation therapy was well tolerated and maintained stable QOL in patients with PDAC for up to 1 year.

Results from a phase 2a trial showed a 6-month OS and PFS rate of 94% and 72% compared with 67% and 44% from the phase 3 MPACT trial in the first-line treatment of PDAC.

The FDA decision follows phase 2 CANFOUR trial data showing a 2-year survival rate of 35% in IL1RAP-high metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

EBC-129 was well tolerated, with a safety profile consistent with other MMAE-based ADCs in patients with PDAC and other solid tumors.

A survival benefit was noted when elraglusib was added to chemotherapy for patients with metastatic PDAC.

Cisplatin, nab-paclitaxel, gemcitabine, and capecitabine significantly improved EFS vs mFOLFIRINOX in resectable or borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

A post hoc analysis of NAPOLI-3 reveals clinical characteristics and treatment strategies associated with long-term survival in patients with metastatic PDAC treated with NALIRIFOX.

Panelists discuss how dose reductions in the NAPOLI-3 trial paradoxically led to improved survival outcomes (12.6 months for nanoliposomal irinotecan reductions and 13.5 months for oxaliplatin reductions vs shorter survival with full doses), supporting their clinical approach of maintaining patients on tolerable doses for longer treatment duration rather than pursuing maximum dose intensity.

Panelists discuss how UGT1A1 mutations may predict increased diarrhea risk in patients receiving NALIRIFOX, with genetic testing potentially valuable for identifying patients who need more aggressive supportive care or dose modifications, particularly those with borderline performance status.

Clinical data from a phase 1 trial evaluating EBC-129 in solid tumors will be presented at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Society Annual Meeting.

Ten of 12 patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma given the recommended phase 2 dose of the combination regimen had a response.

The phase 2 Actuate 1801 part 3b trial results evaluating elraglusib with GnP in metastatic PDAC will be presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting.

Among 20 patients with advanced pancreatic cancer and available circulating tumor mutational burden data, 40% exhibited increased tumor mutational burden.

Higher social vulnerability index was independently associated with lower odds of meeting at least one quality criterion in treatment for PDAC.

Although the overall incidence of colorectal adenocarcinoma is decreasing, the reduction is primarily associated with patients 55 years or older.
