Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) emerges from precursor lesions (PanINs and IPMNs) that harbor mutations in the KRAS oncogene. Once thought to be untargetable, the KRAS oncoprotein can now be inhibited with small molecule compounds that bind to either the active or inactive form of the protein. KRAS inhibitors...

Despite the success of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy for liquid cancers, it has provided minimal clinical benefit in solid cancers, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). We have previously shown that pharmacological RAS inhibition favorably remodels the PDAC tumor immune microenviron...

The success of immunotherapies such as immune checkpoint blockade and engineered T-cells has demonstrated the immune system’s anticancer potential. Although prophylactic vaccines against oncogenic viruses such as human papillomavirus prevent cancer by blocking infection, therapeutic vaccines targeting tumour-associated...
