Early lymphatic tumor cell dissemination in pancreatic cancer: frequency and prognostic significance.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Pancreatic cancer is a serious disease worldwide for its high mortality. Gemcitabine has become the frontline option for the treatment of this disease since its approval. However, resistance to the drug has been on the rise in recent years. Searching for other chemotherapeutic agents therefore has attracted ...
