Immunotherapies could target aggressive pancreatic cancer, research indicates

The Pharma Data

Scientists have discovered that hard-to-treat pancreatic cancer hijacks a key immune system response. This damage response is related to a form of programmed cell death that occurs when there’s not enough oxygen – which can happen inside metastatic-like tumours, which tend to be larger in size.

Beam Therapeutics has taken over a startup whose technology could proffer the biotech’s genetic medicines to more tissues in the body, widening the potential to approach more diseases. The gene-editing technologies, which have reached the clinic, CRISPR, zinc finger nucleases, and TALENs, make their edits by nicking DNA at the target site.
