Oncosnacks 13: Pancreatic Cancer - NAPOLI-3 Trial Update

But in honour of liposomal irinotecan's recent approval by the Federal Drugs Administration, we thought we would take another look at the NAPOLI-3 trial.

Will this practically change practice for our patients? The answer, for Australia at least, is a resounding maybe.
