...the body’s anti-cancer immune response, as has been seen in tests on mice. If positive results are seen with pancreatic tumours, the team will develop the treatment further through the...

Project title: Identification of drugs that promote activation of the host anticancer immune-responses through enhancement of virus-mediated cell lysis Project aims: Professor Halldén is progressing her PCRF-funded research which aims...

Project Title: Does cancer cell integrin αvβ8 promote pancreatic adenocarcinoma and represent a novel therapeutic target Project Aims: Prof Marshall has identified a molecule called alpha-v-beta-8 (avb8) which sits on...

If you have lost someone to pancreatic cancer and are arranging a funeral, asking for donations to Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund is a special way to remember them and help...

Treatment of pancreatic cancer might be enhanced by zapping tumours with electricity alongside drug treatments, according to a PCRF-funded project at University College Cork. Researchers at CancerResearch@UCC have found that...
