PurposeTranscription-replication conflicts (TRCs) are a major source of endogenous replication stress in cancer. We previously discovered that pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) demonstrates uniquely high levels of TRCs compared to other common solid tumors. Here, we characterize the mechanism of action, oncogene-dependency, PDAC subtype-specificity, and preclinical activity of a TRC-targeting small molecule - AOH1996 - in a spectrum of PDAC models. We also provide first clinical evidence o...
