Core Tip	Stromal interactions play a large part in the dismal prognosis of pancreatic cancer. Recent laboratory studies have examined the potential use of common pharmaceuticals, such as calcium channel blocker (CCB), aspirin, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibi-tors/angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blockers and statins, in inhibiting these protumorigenic stromal interactions. We retrospectively collected data from 164 patients whom underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy to remove a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, to see if the potential benefits of these drugs translated into increased survival. Our finding that those taking a combination of aspirin and CCB survived over twice as long as those on neither drug, highlights the potential of novel drug combinations to increase survival in pancreatic cancer.
