The trial that nearly doubled survival in previously treated pancreatic cancer, presented in the ASCO 2026 plenary. The biggest result in the disease's history.
500 patients, 59 sites. Topline 13 April 2026; presented by Brian Wolpin (Dana-Farber) at the ASCO 2026 plenary (31 May) with simultaneous NEJM publication. Median OS 13.2 vs 6.7 months (HR 0.40, p<0.0001); PFS also significantly improved. The NDA (220910) was received by the FDA on 17 July 2026 and approved on 26 August 2026 as Rasonque for metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma after at least one prior systemic therapy. First-line (RASolute 303) and adjuvant (RASolute 304) trials follow.

One of the most cited trial reports Europe PMC returns for Daraxonrasib in Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, so it is a natural first reading for anyone weighing the idea it is linked from. The record was linked automatically by title and abstract; read the abstract above and the paper itself before relying on any figure.
The mechanism that let one drug address G12D, G12V and G12R together, which is why the RASolute 302 trial could enrol unselected pancreatic cancer and nearly double survival.
It is the allele-level prognosis behind reading the KRAS variant rather than 'KRAS mutant', and it shows the older EUS assay over-called wild-type (33%).
