Lewes, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/12/2018 -- Pancreatic and Bile Duct Cancer Drug Development Pipeline Review, 2018 report provides an overview of the pipeline landscape for pancreatic and bile duct cancer. It provides comprehensive information on the therapeutics under development and key players involved in therapeutic development for pancreatic and bile duct cancer, and features dormant and discontinued products.

Pancreatic cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells are found in the tissues of the pancreas, a large gland situated in the abdominal cavity that is responsible for the secretion of digestive fluids and insulin. Signs and symptoms include upper abdominal pain, yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes (jaundice), loss of appetite, weight loss, depression and blood clots.
