BAY 86-9766 in combination with gemcitabine in advanced pancreatic cancer

Phase 1
Conditions
Pancreatic cancer is the eighth most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide, associated with a 5-year survival rate of 5-6%. A vast majority of patients present with incurable advanced disease. Untreated metastatic disease is associated with a median survival time of 3 to 5 months and locally advanced disease with 6-10 months.Gemcitabine is currently regarded as the standard therapy for locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer.
