Two Shots on Goal: Combination of RAS Inhibition and Immunotherapy Drives Long-term Remission in Pancreatic Cancer
Oncogenic KRAS is a hallmark of pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest malignancies, and inhibition of oncogenic KRAS alone is, in most patients, not sufficient to eradicate the tumor. The two studies by Stanger and colleagues and Lowe and colleagues propose combination therapy approaches to leverage the power of the immune system, together with KRAS inhibition, to achieve long-term remission.
