PALM BEACH, Fla., Jan. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FN Media Group News Commentary - The demand for effective pancreatic cancer treatments is and has been undeniably high. The growing number of diagnoses, with the aggressive nature of the disease, fuels the market.

These lifestyle factors, combined with the growing geriatric population, are expected to fuel market growth. Additionally, personal or family history of pancreatitis and BRCA2 mutation predisposes individuals to pancreatic cancer, further driving demand for effective treatments.
