Phase III trial of gemcitabine plus tipifarnib compared with gemcitabine plus placebo in advanced pancreatic cancer

TL;DR: In this article, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted to determine whether the addition of the farnesyltransferase inhibitor tipifarnib (Zarnestra, R115777) to standard gemcitabine therapy improves overall survival in advanced pancreatic cancer.
