  "textContent": "Even before a tumor in the pancreas becomes discernible, an activated cancer gene actively remodels its future environment and creates an inflammatory and immune-defensive microenvironment in which the carcinoma can grow. This has been shown by an international research team led by Ulm University in a pioneering study. The scientists' study opens up new possibilities for developing personalized intervention strategies—before a difficult-to-treat tumor even develops.",
