VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- USA News Group - Researchers are becoming increasingly concerned with the rates of cancer on the rise among people under 50. A recent study found a nearly 80% global increase in the number of under-50s getting diagnosed with cancer from 1990 to 2019. And among the most worrying rise is in pancreatic cancer, which comes with extremely low survival rates. However, with strategies such as the "Cancer Moonshot," a $200M boost from a newly formed VC firm, and sustained efforts from the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN), a leading pancreatic cancer organization, which this year noted the 5-year survival rate is approximately 12%. Many new developments are currently underway from biotech firms searching for new treatments and methods of diagnosis, including those from Oncolytics Biotech Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), Genelux Corporation (NASDAQ: GNLX), Crinetics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRNX), Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) and Seagen Inc. (NASDAQ: SGEN).

Key Points: 
  • And among the most worrying rise is in pancreatic cancer, which comes with extremely low survival rates.
  • "By teaming up with PanCAN, we believe we may be able to expedite development and provide pancreatic cancer patients with a bespoke immunotherapeutic treatment option."
  • Further survival follow up is required to inform our next steps in pancreatic cancer," said Roger Dansey, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Seagen.
  • "We are continuing to advance the ongoing phase 2 trial of SEA-CD40 in melanoma and in non-small cell lung cancer."
