    Summary

    PDAC causes 34000 deaths per year in the EU alone.[14] Despite considerable research efforts in the past decades, conventional treatment approaches, including surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and combinations of these, have close to no impact on the course of this aggressive neoplasm. Therefore, virtually all of the patients diagnosed with PC develop metastases and die[15]
    Given this scenario, the search for new

    Expected results

    The work proposed in this program meets the need to reverse-translate the clinical issues encountered in

    PDAC progression and reduce mortality
