Today is #WorldPancreaticCancerDay As a low survival cancer, early detection is vital and knowing the signs and symptoms can make a huge difference. Take a moment to watch the video below. If you experience any of these symptoms for 3 weeks or more speak to your G.P.

Such an exciting time! Likely game-changer in #PDAC 👇🏻#KRASi ➡️hopefully we can understand who will respond, who will need combinations ➡️how will subtypes and RAS dosage influence response? ➡️how can we help more patients access trials! @pancanireland @P_C_E_ @LabNotta
Stunning interim clinical trial data from Revolution Medicines... PFS = 8.1 mo in 2nd line KRAS G12-mutant metastatic #PDAC. OS not yet reached, but already more than a year! Benchmark PFS for this group is 2-3.5 months, behnchmark OS is 6.1-6.9. 1/
