In Japan, 5 years have passed since the initiation of precision cancer medicine, and recent data accumulation in familial pancreatic cancer (FPC) and hereditary pancreatic cancer is outstanding. Multigene germline panel tests (MGPTs) have revealed that 7%-18% of patients with pancreatic cancer (PC) harbor pathogenic germline variants (PGVs), almost equal to the levels of breast, ovarian, endometrial, and colorectal cancers, with a higher incidence in FPC (14%-26%). The majority of PGVs seen in PC patients are clinically actionable and associated with homologous recombination (HR) pathways (6%-10%, particularly BRCA1/2 in 5%-6%), and the clinical guidelines recommend or propose genetic testing for all PC patients.

Purpose: To assess the association between neoadjuvant therapy and overall survival (OS) in patients with left-sided resectable pancreatic cancer (RPC) compared to upfront surgery.
Background: Left-sided pancreatic cancer is associated with worse OS compared to right-sided pancreatic cancer. Although neoadjuvant therapy is currently seen as not effective in patients with RPC, current randomized trials included mostly patients with right-sided RPC.

Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC), an inflammatory disease characterized by intestinal barrier dysfunction, poses significant challenges because of the toxicity and adverse effects commonly associated with conventional therapies. Safer and more efficacious treatment strategies are needed.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to treat UC with Folium Artemisiae Argyi exosome-like nanovesicles (FAELNs) and to explore its related mechanism to provide a safer and more effective means for the treatment of ulcerative colitis.

Innovative therapeutic strategies are urgently needed to address the ongoing global health concern of hepatobiliary pancreatic malignancies. This review summarizes the latest and most comprehensive research of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T) cell engineering immunotherapy for treating hepatobiliary pancreatic cancers. Commencing with an exploration of the distinct anatomical location and the immunosuppressive, hypoxic tumor microenvironment (TME), this review critically assesses the limitations of current CAR-T therapy in hepatobiliary pancreatic cancers and proposes corresponding solutions.
