Pancreatic Cancer Research

Our goal is translating our research into action for better patient care

As leaders in the development of new techniques to target pancreatic cancer, our physicians use what they learn in the lab to help treat pancreatic cancer patients. Through the combination of extensive research paired with clinical expertise, our experts have begun the first human clinical trials to measure the effect of new target drugs on the cancer stem cells that are in charge of the growth and spread of pancreatic cancer.

Areas to explore:

Featured Clinical Trial

This trial will evaluate the effect of inhibition of hedgehog signaling on pancreatic cancer stem for number and percentage of pancreatic cancer stem cells before and after treatment with GDC-0449. Learn more about the study or register.

Other pancreatic cancer-related clinical trials are listed on UMClinicalStudies.org.
