The present invention relates to methods and pharmaceutical compositions for use in the treatment of pancreatic cancer in a subject in need thereof. The inventors showed that targeting cytidine deaminase sensitizes cancer cells to chemotherapy (gemcitabine dFdC) both in vitro and in vivo in experimental models of PDA, with very high efficacy. To their surprise, CDA targeting in the absence of chemotherapy strongly alters cell proliferation and tumor progression. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for treating pancreatic cancer in a subject in need thereof comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a cytidine deaminase inhibitor in combination with an anti-pancreatic cancer treatment selected from the group consisting of CHK1 inhibitor, WEE1 inhibitor, ART inhibitor, DHODH inhibitor or gene therapy.
