Ibrutinib (IMBRUVICA®) Improves Outcomes for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma in Mouse Models
PR Newswire - Mon Apr 20, 8:00AM CDT
Ibrutinib (IMBRUVICA®) data presented yesterday by Pharmacyclics, Inc. (NASDAQ: PCYC) at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting suggest that ibrutinib may be an effective therapeutic option for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), as shown in both a transgenic mouse model and an in-vivo model of patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mice (grafts of tissue taken from a pancreatic cancer patient and grafted into a mouse).1 These early, pre-clinical data show ibrutinib was associated with potent anti-fibrotic activity and longer survival in the treated mice. PDAC is a type of pancreatic cancer that is typically characterized by a fibro-inflammatory reaction, which makes PDAC a difficult disease to treat with current therapies. These data were also published in the April 15th edition of Cancer Research. IMBRUVICA is jointly developed and commercialized by Pharmacyclics and Janssen Biotech, Inc.
