Abstract:
Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant, fast progressive digestive system neoplasm with poor prognosis, and the incidence has increased significantly in the recent years. The treatment mode of pancreatic cancer has been transformed from surgery-first approach to multidisciplinary approach including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other comprehensive treatment modalities, accompanying with significant improvement in clinical efficacy. During the last decade, the molecular mechanism of pancreatic cancer has been explored in depth. Indeed, we had a clearer understanding of the disease, which provides clues for translation of basic research into clinical practice. This review summarized recent high quality studies on pancreatic cancer including pathogenic factor, advances in basic research, and clinical treatment.
