Thus, these preclinical data suggests that partial abolishment of the MUC4 mucin mediated signaling axis along with inhibition of EGFR family members could be a more effective approach to combat pancreatic cancer as it inhibits the crosstalk between multiple pathways and could result in a highly efficient therapy when used in combination with primary care of pancreatic cancer. This evidence concerns the gene EGFR and pancreatic neoplasm.
