Washington [US], August 26 (ANI): A detailed analysis of pancreatic cancer by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has revealed details of two key transition points in the development of these tumours the shift from normal cells to precancerous cells and the change from precancerous to cancerous cells. Understanding these transitions will help lead to the development of novel therapies.
Washington [US], December 2 (ANI): Pancreatic cancer is extremely difficult to treat. By the time it is detected, cancer often has reached an advanced stage, and patients usually do not survive longer than one year after diagnosis. An aggressive chemotherapy regimen is a first-line treatment, but the side effects can be severe and many tumours stop responding to treatment.
