The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and Indianapolis-based Community Health Network announced a partnership agreement to create Community Health Network MD Anderson Cancer Center.
Researchers at MD Anderson Cancer Center have uncovered a functional role for KRAS mutations in pancreatic cancer and rapidly translated these findings into a novel therapeutic approach combining a KRAS G12D inhibitor with immune checkpoint inhibitors for early- and late-stage KRAS G12D-mutant pancreatic cancer. The combination therapy led to durable tumor elimination and significantly improved survival outcomes in preclinical models, leading to the launch of a phase I clinical trial.
