Development of an epidemiological score for the early detection of pancreatic cancer

An international team—with significant participation from the PADO group at the ICO and IDIBELL, which includes several members of ALIPANC—has developed an epidemiological risk score for the early detection of pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest cancers due to...

PANTHEIA-SEOM Validates SIRI as a Prognostic Marker in Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

The multicenter study included 672 patients treated with first-line chemotherapy. A low SIRI score (≤2.3) was associated with longer overall survival (14.0 vs. 9.2 months). It was also associated with longer progression-free survival (5.9 vs. 3.9 months) and a higher...

MNK1, a kinase involved in pancreatic cancer stem cell maintenance

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a highly tumorigenic population of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells that contribute to tumor progression, metastasis, therapy resistance and disease relapse. In this study, Pérez-Ruiz and colleagues investigated apMNKQ2, a DNA...

A new multi-omic atlas of the human pancreas

The ESPACE consortium presents a comprehensive multi-omic atlas of the human pancreas, profiling more than 4 million cells from 57 donors across fetal development, adult homeostasis, and type 2 diabetes. With a particular focus on the exocrine compartment, the study...

Next-generation sequencing analysis of pancreatic cancer samples obtained via endoscopy

A recently published study, led by Elisabeth Pando and Teresa Macarulla, demonstrates that tissue obtained through diagnostic endoscopic biopsy for pancreatic cancer can also be used to perform molecular analyses using next-generation sequencing (NGS). In 74% of...

Daraxonrasib or Chemotherapy in Previously Treated Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

Pancreatic cancer carries a dismal prognosis, with a median survival of less than six months following progression on standard chemotherapy. Precision oncology initiatives have historically benefited only a minority of patients, leaving systemic chemotherapy as the...

A new treatment strategy targets pancreatic cancer and boosts the immune system

A study led by the Hospital del Mar Research Institute and the IIBB-CSIC has identified a new strategy for treating pancreatic cancer based on inhibiting the PARP2 protein. The results, published in Science Advances, show in animal models that blocking this protein...
