TED: Good news in the fight against pancreatic cancer | Laura Indolfi

The video discusses the challenges of treating pancreatic cancer, highlighting its lethality and the lack of progress in survival rates over the past 40 years. It introduces a new localized drug delivery method developed in collaboration with MIT and Massachusetts General Hospital, which aims to improve treatment efficacy by delivering drugs directly to the tumor site. This method has shown promising results in pre-clinical studies, significantly enhancing the response to treatment while reducing systemic toxicity. The video concludes with the hope of making pancreatic cancer a curable disease through innovative solutions.
