From Standard of Care to mRNA Cancer Vaccines and Spatial Architecture-Based Precision Therapy in PDAC: Challenges and Expectations.
Review in Cancers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most complex and aggressive disease with the worst rates of unresectable or metastatic disease at diagnosis, resistance to systemic therapy, and case fatality rate (CFR) among leading cancers. In non-metastatic disease, neoadjuvant treatment with modern chemotherapeutic regimens followed by surgical resection and/or adjuvant mFOLFIRINOX has significantly improved oncological outcomes. However, recurrence rates remain alarmingly high, while immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) or molecularly targeted therapy have not yet demonstrated clinical benefits. Comprehensive genomic profiling through NGS-based approved assays such as TruSight Oncology 500 (TSO500) could guide targeted therapy. Rapidly evolving mRNA cancer vaccines and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-based prediction of minimal residual disease (MRD) and recurrence risk hold great promise towards the realization of rational combination therapy to improve recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). More recently, single-cell multiomics (SC MO), spatial proteomics and transcriptomics (SPT), artificial intelligence (AI), and systems biology have revolutionized cancer research, enabling holistic tumor microenvironment (TME) analysis. In this comprehensive review, we describe the latest advances and unmet needs in the standard of care of PDAC. Moreover, we discuss the expectations of ongoing randomized clinical trials of adjuvant mRNA vaccine-based therapy and ctDNA MRD testing as prognostic biomarkers, towards personalized treatment to improve RFS and OS in a medium-term perspective. With a longer perspective, we explore how harnessing SC MO, SPT, AI, and systems biology can reveal the 3D spatial organization of interacting cancer, immune, and stromal cells. Multi-dimensional TME-, TSO500- and ctDNA-based framework of dynamic biomarkers are of paramount importance to achieve an optimal patient-specific perioperative multimodal treatment combining precision immunotherapy, targeted drugs, and modern chemotherapy, translated into future practice-changing clinical trials, that could eliminate MRD towards recurrence prevention.
