Today, pancreatic cancer is treated with multagent chemotherapy, but unfortunately, the results are not very good, with a five-year survival rate of 7%, said Hendifar. PEGH20, a PEGylated form of rHuPH20, is an enzyme inhibitor of polyuronides, and Hendifar and his team hypothesized that using PEGH20, in addition to chemotherapy, would help to deliver the chemotherapy to the tumor.
