Did you miss last night's #PancChat? Catch up on the state of early detection for pancreatic cancer with the archive! wakelet.com/wake/f2KGHLDfW…
We will archive the chat tomorrow morning and share it here on Twitter and in our weekly newsletter. #PancChat
That was fun! And now to pack in less than 30 minutes #PancChat
Many thanks to @DanielHaldarMD, @PancPathologist, and @HannahAlison20 for joining us tonight during #PancChat. And as always, much gratitude to our-cohosts who support this initiative! #PancChat
Mark your calendars for our next two chats! On May 21st, we will be chatting about Integrative Oncology. On June 18th, we will be tackling the topic of health disparities and pancreatic cancer. #PancChat
Are there any final questions? #PancChat
A10.3 Advocate for increased funding: Contacting elected officials and policymakers to advocate for increased funding for pancreatic cancer research can help accelerate progress toward early detection methods and improved treatment options. #PancChat
@letswinpc Talk to your doctor about your family history. #PancChat
A10.2 Consider joining clinical trials investigating new pancreatic cancer screening, treatments, or supportive care interventions for PC. Trials advance knowledge and better strategies. #PancChat
@letswinpc @hopkinskimmel These results are an early but promising step in the right direction towards creating vaccines that can intercept the development of pancreatic cancer in high-risk populations #PancChat
A10.1 Educate friends/family about pancreatic cancer - risk factors, symptoms, importance of early detection. Share info, resources, and encourage seeking medical care if symptoms/risk factors present. Spreading awareness can save lives. #PancChat
Q10. What steps can individuals take to raise awareness about the importance of early detection and support ongoing research efforts in pancreatic cancer? #PancChat
@letswinpc @hopkinskimmel As I presented #AACR24, initial results from our phase I interception trial showed that mKRAS-VAX has a favorable safety profile and is effective at generating T cell responses against KRAS mutations #PancChat
A9.3 Liquid biopsies may also help detect minimal residual disease after treatment and identify disease recurrence early on, providing new opportunities for managing pancreatic cancer. #PancChat
@letswinpc Our group @hopkinskimmel has developed an off-the-shelf peptide vaccine called mKRAS-VAX that targets six of the most common KRAS mutations found in PC #PancChat
