Founded in 1992 United European Gastroenterology (UEG) is the leading non-profit organisation for excellence in digestive health in Europe and beyond with its headquarters in Vienna. We improve the prevention and care of digestive diseases in Europe through providing top tier education, supporting research and advancing clinical standards. As Europe’s home and umbrella for multidisciplinary gastroenterology, we unite over 50,000 engaged professionals from national and specialist societies, individual digestive health experts and related scientists from all fields and career stages. The myUEG Community enables digestive health professionals from across the globe to become myUEG Associates and thereby connect, network and benefit from a wide range of free resources and educational activities. Our offers include our annual congress UEG Week, online and face-to-face educational experiences, research support, a scientific journal and a range of opportunities in the form of fellowships and grants. We provide numerous guidelines, standards and quality improvement initiatives and campaign at the European level to ensure continued resources for research into digestive health while working closely with patient organisations.

For this year's European Awareness Week on Alcohol-Related Harm ( ), EUROCARE (The European Alcohol Policy Alliance)​, EASL - The Home of Hepatology​ and UEG co-organized the high-level meeting "Rethinking Prevention: A Dialogue with Youth" on November 4 at the European Parliament.

Hosted by Manuela Ripa, MEP​ and co-hosted by MEP Vytenis Andriukaitis, the event highlighted the urgent need to address alcohol's impact on youth. It brought together youth advocates, health professionals and policymakers to discuss how prevention policies can be more effective in meeting the needs of younger generations.

MEPs emphasized that the goal is not to control drinking choices but to empower citizens with clear, evidence-based information to make informed decisions. The active involvement of youth was recognized as essential to shaping inclusive and impactful policies.

By prioritizing youth perspectives, we are moving toward more evidence-based, targeted solutions for alcohol prevention and healthier futures for all.

🧬 Refined DNA damage targeting shows promise for homologous recombination (HR)-deficient pancreatic cancer

Up to 20% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients harbor mutations in HR repair genes such as ATM, BRCA1/2, or PALB2. However, the PARP inhibitor olaparib is currently approved only for a small subset of BRCA1/2-mutated cases

🐭 🧫This preclinical study compared PARP inhibitors and optimized a multi-drug DNA damage repair interference regimen (PAD) to enhance treatment efficacy in HR-deficient PDAC

🔎 Key findings
🔸 Talazoparib demonstrated stronger PARP-trapping potency and cytotoxicity than olaparib
🔸 Talazoparib-based PAD (Talazoparib + ATR inhibitor + DNA-PK inhibitor) achieved superior tumor control vs. olaparib-based PAD in vivo
🔸 The combination was effective across ATM, BRCA1/2, and PALB2-mutated models
🔸 Comparable tolerability observed in mouse studies

💡 Clinical perspective
Talazoparib-based PAD represents a refined therapeutic strategy for HR-deficient PDAC, expanding potential benefit beyond BRCA-mutated tumors and supporting future clinical evaluation
