About this trial
The aim of this study is to assess the clinical value of 5 transcriptomic signatures prognostic of chemotherapeutic sensitivity to improve the Objective Response Rate (ORR) of first-line (L1). Chemotherapy regimen (FOLFIRINOX vs Gem-nabP) will be selected based on transcriptomic signatures applied to the pre-therapeutic liver biopsy of newly diagnosed PDAC patients.
