Key Terms

pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, pdac, progression-free survival, overall survival, +4 more
8 terms
pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma medical
"previously untreated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), a disease..."
A fast-growing cancer that starts in the cells lining the pancreas’ small ducts; it is the most common and aggressive form of pancreatic cancer. It matters to investors because its severity and limited treatment options drive high unmet medical need, large potential markets for effective drugs or diagnostics, and strong sensitivity of company valuations to clinical trial results, regulatory approvals, or changes in treatment guidelines—similar to how fixing a main leak can prevent major damage in a building.
pdac medical
"previously untreated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), a disease..."
PDAC stands for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the most common and aggressive form of pancreatic cancer that starts in the pancreas’s duct cells. It matters to investors because PDAC represents a large unmet medical need with high patient mortality, driving intense drug development, clinical trial activity and potential regulatory milestones—like a critical, hard-to-fix engine part whose failure creates urgent demand for effective solutions, affecting a company’s valuation and risk profile.
progression-free survival medical
"The primary endpoints are progression-free survival and overall survival."
Progression-free survival is the length of time during and after a treatment that a patient's disease does not get worse, measured from the start of treatment until the disease shows measurable signs of progression or the patient dies. Investors care because longer progression-free survival in clinical trials often signals that a drug is effective, improving chances of regulatory approval, market adoption, and revenue potential—think of it as a stopwatch showing how long a therapy can keep the illness at bay.
overall survival medical
"The primary endpoints are progression-free survival and overall survival."
Overall survival is the average or median length of time patients remain alive after starting a treatment or entering a clinical study, measured regardless of cause of death. Investors care because it is a clear, hard measure of a therapy’s real-world benefit — like timing how long a new battery actually runs — and strong improvements in overall survival can drive regulatory approval, market adoption and revenue potential.
patient reported outcomes medical
"Key secondary endpoints include ... safety and tolerability, and patient reported outcomes."
Patient reported outcomes are measurements of a patient’s own assessment of their symptoms, daily functioning, or quality of life collected directly from the patient via surveys, diaries, or apps rather than from doctors or tests. They matter to investors because regulators, payers and clinicians use these firsthand reports to judge whether a treatment delivers real-world benefit; strong patient-reported results can improve a therapy’s chances of approval, reimbursement and market adoption, much like positive customer reviews boost product sales.
gemcitabine medical
"in combination with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel versus standard-of-care..."
Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that works by interfering with cancer cells’ ability to copy their DNA, which slows or stops tumor growth. Investors watch it because clinical trial results, regulatory approvals, patent status, or manufacturing and supply issues for a widely used cancer medicine can materially affect a drugmaker’s sales, partnerships, and stock value—think of it as a key product whose market performance can move a company.
nab-paclitaxel medical
"in combination with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel versus standard-of-care..."
A chemotherapy drug formulation in which the anti-cancer agent paclitaxel is bound to human albumin protein particles to improve delivery into tumors and avoid harsh solvent ingredients used in older versions. Investors pay attention because clinical trial results, regulatory approvals, patent or licensing status, and manufacturing capacity for this specialized formulation can drive sales, pricing power and a company’s future revenue potential — like a better-packaged product that reaches customers more effectively.
non-small cell lung cancer medical
"one in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)."
A broad category of lung tumors that grow from the cells lining the airways and make up the majority of lung cancer cases; it includes several subtypes that behave and respond to treatment differently, like different models of the same car family. It matters to investors because its large patient population and variety of treatment options — surgery, traditional chemo, targeted drugs and immunotherapies — create major markets where clinical trial results, drug approvals or changing treatment guidelines can quickly affect a company’s revenue and stock value.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., April 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Revolution Medicines, a late-stage clinical oncology company developing targeted therapies for patients with RAS-addicted cancers, today announced that it has begun treating patients in RASolute 303, a global Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating daraxonrasib as monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), a disease predominantly driven by oncogenic RAS variants. RASolute 303 is designed to enroll patients irrespective of tumor RAS genotype. 

“Starting treatment of study participants in the RASolute 303 trial represents an important milestone for our daraxonrasib program and for patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer, a disease with substantial unmet medical need,” said Alan Sandler, M.D., chief development officer of Revolution Medicines. “In this trial, we are testing two biologically rational approaches—daraxonrasib as monotherapy and daraxonrasib in combination with chemotherapy—as two distinct, promising strategies to potentially improve patient outcomes. This trial underscores our commitment to advancing RAS(ON) inhibition into earlier lines of therapy, where we believe it can deliver significant benefit.”

RASolute 303 (NCT07491445) is a global, randomized, open-label Phase 3 trial evaluating daraxonrasib as monotherapy or in combination with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel versus standard-of-care gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel in patients with previously untreated metastatic PDAC. In this trial, the company is enrolling patients who have not received prior systemic therapy for metastatic disease. The primary endpoints are progression-free survival and overall survival. Key secondary endpoints include additional measures of antitumor activity, safety and tolerability, and patient reported outcomes. 

Daraxonrasib is currently being evaluated in four global Phase 3 registrational trials, including three trials in patients with PDAC and one in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). 

About Pancreatic Cancer and Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma 
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal malignancies, characterized by its typically late-stage diagnosis, resistance to standard chemotherapy, and high mortality rate. In the U.S., recent estimates indicate that approximately 60,000 people are diagnosed annually with pancreatic cancer, and about 50,000 people will die from this aggressive disease.1 

Due to the lack of early symptoms and detection methods, approximately 80% of patients are diagnosed with PDAC at an advanced or metastatic stage. It is the most commonly RAS-driven malignancy of all major cancers, and more than 90% of patients have tumors that harbor RAS mutations.2 Metastatic PDAC remains one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths in the U.S., with a five-year survival rate of approximately 3%3,4 

About Daraxonrasib 
Daraxonrasib (RMC-6236) is an oral, direct RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitor with the potential to help address a broad range of cancers driven by oncogenic RAS, including PDAC, NSCLC and colorectal cancer. Daraxonrasib suppresses RAS signaling by blocking the interaction of wild-type and mutant RAS(ON) with its downstream effectors.
