Novel agents for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: emerging therapeutics and future directions

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2018
A poor prognosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) associated with chemoresistance has not changed for the past three decades. A multidisciplinary diagnosis followed by surgery and chemo(radiation)therapy is the main treatment approach. However,
