**A Single Gene Could Hold the Key to Taming One of the Deadliest Cancers**
By NYU Langone Health / NYU Grossman School of Medicine - Published on 22 October 2026
Blocking one gene’s activity shifted aggressive pancreatic cancer cells into a less aggressive form in experiments, pointing to a possible way to disrupt tumor evolution. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma kills nearly 85 percent of people within five years of diagnosis. Part of the challenge is that its cancer cells can change, shifting between less aggressive and [...]
