Despite unprecedented advances in the development of targeted- and immuno-therapies for various cancer types, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. A comprehensive characterization of PDAC is critical for the development of new therapies...
February 23, 2023
Despite extensive clinical and scientific efforts, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths in Korea and around the world. Prior analyses of PDAC tissues have identified key genomic features of the disease, but proteomic signatures have not...
