Background: Current research that combines radiation with targeted therapy may dramatically improve prognosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). We investigated preclinical outcomes of DNA repair inhibitor targeted therapy associated with radiotherapy. Methods: We searched Pubmed database to identify publications assessing DNA damage targeted therapies in preclinical models of PDACin vitro and in vivo. Standard enhancement ratio, median survival and growth delay were extracted. Results: We identified fourteen publications using DNA repair targeted therapies in preclinical models of PDAC. Ten publications comprising twenty-eight experiments evaluated radiosensitization with different DNA repair inhibitors in vitro and displayed cell killing by a factor of 1.35 +/- 0.047. Moreover, 86 % (24/28) of in vitro experiments showed radiosensitization with DNA damage response inhibitor. However, only 60 % (9/15) of the in vivo experiments presented radiosensitization effects. Conclusion: DNA repair targeted therapies use promising radiosensitizers for PDAC and could successfully be translated into clinical trials.
