Title:

Potential benefit of treatment with MEK inhibitors and chemotherapy in BRAF-mutated KRAS wild-type pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients: a case report

Excerpt:
This is the first case report of a 60-yr-old female who underwent therapy for metastatic pancreatic cancer...Per genomic sequencing, her tumor was found to be a KRAS wild-type and BRAF V600E mutation, which then warranted treatment with the MEK1 and MEK2 inhibitor, cobimetinib. The patient has achieved a complete response (CR) to a combination of gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, and cobimetinib.
Secondary therapy:
gemcitabine + albumin-bound paclitaxel
