| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Anticancer drug-induced nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) attenuates chemosensitivity. Gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel is recommended for unresectable pancreatic cancer, however, the median survival time is only 8.5 months. Thalidomide suppresses NF-κB activation in digestive cancer, therefore, we hypothesized that pomalidomide, a third generation of IMiDs, also improve chemoresistance on pancreatic cancer cells.
For both in vitro and in vivo, pomalidomide enhanced the antitumor effects of gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine/S-1. Especially, to the best of our knowledge, current study firstly demonstrated that pomalidomide enhanced p53 on pancreatic cancer cells. Pomalidomide also induced apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and anti-angiogenesis on pancreatic cancer. This new regimen would be a new therapeutic approach.
