- Research Findings Published: Propanc, in collaboration with the Universities of Jaén and Granada, published significant findings in Scientific Reports regarding the impact of PRP on pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma-associated fibroblasts, highlighting PRP's potential as a therapeutic candidate that could change treatment paradigms for pancreatic cancer patients.
- Clinical Study Plans: The company plans to initiate a Phase 1b clinical trial in Q3 2026 targeting advanced cancer patients, aiming to validate the translational potential of PRP as an adjunct therapy, which will further advance its application in indications like pancreatic cancer.
- New Cancer Treatment Strategy: The research indicates that PRP exerts multifaceted effects by influencing interactions between cancer-associated fibroblasts and tumor cells, potentially providing new treatment options for pancreatic cancer patients and improving survival outcomes.
- Broad Market Prospects: Despite limited treatment options and poor prognosis for pancreatic cancer, projected to become the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths by 2030, Propanc's research findings strongly support its competitive position in the biopharmaceutical market.
