Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal solid tumors, mainly because of its intrinsic chemoresistance. We identified TAK1 as a central hub sustaining this resistance.

Abstract

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal solid tumors, mainly because of its intrinsic chemoresistance. We identified TAK1 as a central hub sustaining this resistance. Nanoliposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI)is a novel treatment for metastatic gemcitabine-refractory pancreatic cancer. We endeavored to identify circulating markers for TAK1 activation predicting chemoresistance in this setting.
