Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a poor prognosis, with an overall 5-year survival rate of less than 10%. Between 20 and 30% of PDAC cases are resectable at diagnosis; however, patients' post-operative survival periods vary widely, irrespective of active therapeutic interventions. Therefore, extensive efforts have been made to identify biomarkers that may identify patients with an improved prognosis. Although profound local immune suppression had been implicated in PDAC progression and poor patient survival, a prognostic marker that can directly and functionally read immune evasion in situ is not yet available.
