Akamis Bio, Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy and Cancer Research Institute Announce Expanded Partnership to Advance Novel Treatments for Pancreatic Cancer

“Pancreatic cancer is one of the most complex and difficult to treat cancers. The wide variety of cell types, molecular pathways, and immune resistance mechanisms involved in the development and progression of the disease make it nearly impossible to treat with a single agent,” said Robert Vonderheide, M.D., D.Phil., Director of the Abramson Cancer Center at Penn Medicine and lead investigator of the REVOLUTION study. “REVOLUTION was specifically designed to identify combination therapies with the potential to have a meaningful impact on disease progression. We look forward to further exploring the CD40 agonist mechanism of action for people with pancreatic cancer who are in dire need of additional treatment options.”
