Official title

Phase II Study of Hydroxychloroquine in Previously Treated Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Hydroxychloroquine is approved for the treatment of non-cancerous illnesses such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematous. Researchers in the laboratory have tested tumors from patients with pancreatic cancer and have discovered that they have certain pathways inside the cells that promote growth and survival of the tumor. Hydroxychloroquine may inactivate these pathways and results in the death of pancreatic cancer cells.
