Advances in Systemic Therapy in Pancreatic Cancer.

Substantial progress has been made toward understanding biology and developing new therapies for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). In this review, new insights from genomic profiling, as well as implications for treatment and prognosis, are discussed. New standards of care approaches with a focus on drug therapies are discussed for the treatment of resectable and advanced PDAC. The role of targeted and immune therapies remains limited; cohorts likely to benefit from these approaches are discussed. Promising, preliminary results regarding experimental therapies are reviewed.
