Tag: Cancer: Pancreatic

Primary end point not met, but small subset of advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients showed durable responses

Increasing incidence mainly due to increased detection of smaller, early-stage endocrine cancer, not adenocarcinoma

Palliative care consultations have no significant impact on the likelihood of documented treatment

Most people erroneously think pancreatic cancer occurs only in older people and that they cannot alter risk

Reduced risk was more pronounced in those with type 2 diabetes, but was also seen in those without T2D

However, omission does result in reductions in neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and use of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor

More than 70 percent with stage I pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and about 30 percent with stage II PDAC upstaged after surgery

Model integrating clinical information and endoscopic ultrasonographic images enhances diagnostic accuracy of novice endoscopists

High-risk individuals were classified into three groups based on familial pancreatic cancer and a pathogenic germline variant

Signature resulting from combining cell-free-miRNAs, exosomal-miRNAs distinguished patients with PDAC from healthy donors
