Spanish Researchers Develop Breakthrough Therapy Protocol for Pancreatic Cancer Treatment

Researchers in Spain have developed a new therapy protocol that could revolutionize the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Notoriously aggressive and difficult to treat, pancreatic cancer is rarely diagnosed in its early stages, as typical symptoms — including back pain, indigestion, nausea, fatigue and bloating — are common and commonly dismissed.

In more than 60% of cases, by the time of diagnosis, pancreatic cancer has already advanced to Stage 4.

Further, the tumor's biology makes it resistant to traditional treatments like chemotherapy.
