Advances in Novel Targeted Therapies for Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma.
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposePancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive malignancy with limited therapeutic options and poor prognosis. Recent advances in targeted therapies have opened new avenues for intervention in PDAC, focusing on key genetic and molecular pathways that drive tumor progression.
methodsIn this review, we provide an overview on advances in novel targeted therapies in pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
resultsHere, we explore the latest development in targeting the KRAS pathway, a historically "undruggable" target crucial to PDAC pathogenesis. Strategies to inhibit KRAS include direct KRAS-targeted therapies, modulation of upstream and downstream signaling, KRAS-specific siRNA, and novel combination therapies integrating KRAS inhibitors with immune checkpoint blockade, PARP inhibitors, chemotherapy, CDK4/6 inhibitors, and autophagy modulators. Beyond KRAS, emerging targets such as NRG1 fusions, NTRK/ROS1 fusions, RET alterations, and the PRMT5/CDKN2A/MAT2A axis, along with EGFR and Claudin18.2 inhibitors, are also discussed as promising therapeutic strategies. Additionally, the review highlights novel approaches for microsatellite instability-high (MSIH) PDAC and emerging therapies, including adoptive cell therapies (CAR-T, TCR, TIL), cancer vaccines, and strategies to modify the tumor microenvironment.
conclusionOverall, the rapid evolution of targeted therapies offers renewed optimism in the fight against pancreatic cancer, a malignancy with historically poor outcomes.
