INHIBITION OF THE MAMMALIAN TARGET OF RAPAMYCIN (MTOR) IN ADVANCED PANCREATIC CANCER: RESULTS OF TWO PHASE II STUDIES

Inhibition of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) in advanced pancreatic cancer: results of two phase II studies

Abstract Background The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway is constitutively activated in pancreatic cancer and the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase is an important mediator for its signaling.Our recent in vitro studies suggest that prolonged exposure of pancreatic cancer cells to mTOR inhibitors can promote insulin receptor su
