Current Clinical Studies of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to annnounce the launch of a Special Issue on ‘Current Clinical Studies of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma’ which will take the form of a multi-disciplinary project, incoporating research on medical oncology, current trends in neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer, and surgical managements such as open and minimally invasive techniques. This Special Issue will also highlight studies on the locoregional treatment space including advances in SBRT and MR-guided Linac along with irreversible electroporation (IRE) using an open surgical approach and a percutaneous approach. Additionally, bench research analyzing the role of local treatment in enhancing immune response and/or the impact of local treatment on the stromal tissue of pancreatic cancer, which improves the uptake of immunotherapy, will also be incorporated.

Dr. Govindarajan Narayanan
Guest Editor
