American Cancer Society Released Its 2024 Facts and Figures Report Showing an Increase in the 5-year Survival Rate for Pancreatic Cancer The American Cancer Society's Cancer Facts & Figures 2024 report reveals an encouraging trend in the fight against pancreatic cancer. The five-year survival rate has now risen to 13%! Despite this progress, pancreatic cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related deaths and is projected to become the second-leading cause by 2030. The Pancreatic Cancer Cure Foundation (PCCF) is committed to reversing this trend through funding critical research and clinical trials. The goal is to not only increase the survival rate for pancreatic cancer but also to reduce the number of people diagnosed with the disease. With your support, we can make a positive impact in the fight against pancreatic cancer. #flipthestory

In our visit to Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center last month, Dr. Babar Bashir shared exciting and promising research on the KRAS gene mutation, which accounts for ~90-95% of pancreatic cancer tumors. In clinical trials, SKCC has shown great success inhibiting KRAS G12C with the drug Sotorasib, stopping tumor growth. KRAS is no longer an undruggable target. https://lnkd.in/dC6_T_uW
