Program Overview
Pancreatic cancer is a serious disease and is expected to become the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths by 2030. Each year, over 62,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed, and about 90% do not survive beyond five years. Current treatments like NALIRIFOX, FOLFIRINOX, and nab-paclitaxel-gemcitabine have shown some improvement in survival rates, but there is a need for better options. This study focuses on a new drug, Onvansertib, which targets a common mutation in pancreatic cancer called KRAS. The goal is to see if Onvansertib, combined with NALIRIFOX, can offer better results for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.
