Registry for High-Risk Pancreatic Cancer

This observational study is creating a registry for people at high risk for pancreatic cancer (PDAC). The goal is to find and confirm new ways to detect pancreatic cancer early. Researchers will collect blood and pancreatic juice samples, and radiology images like MRIs, over up to 10 years. This information will help develop advanced computer programs (machine learning) to identify early signs of cancer and people at high risk. You can join if you are 18 or older, can give consent, and meet specific high-risk criteria. You cannot join if you have already had pancreatic cancer or a total pancreatectomy. The study status is currently unclear, but it plans to enroll 5000 participants.

Study design
This is an observational study, meaning researchers will collect information without giving new treatments. It aims to enroll 5000 participants.
What's involved
You would provide blood samples at enrollment and before any pancreatic surgery, and pancreatic juice samples if you have certain endoscopy procedures. Some participants might also receive research MRIs at baseline and every 3 years.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Researchers will collect samples and images for up to 10 years.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Age ≥ 18 year
Able to provide written informed consent
Meets criteria as a High-Risk Individual as defined by protocol

Exclusion

Individual who has a personal history of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)
History of total pancreatectomy
  • Collection of biospecimen samples (blood and pancreatic juice)Up to 10 years

    Sufficient biospecimens (blood and pancreatic juice) will be collected in 10 years from participants to provide a resource for nested case-control studies of promising biomarkers for discovery and validation of tests for early detection in subjects at high risk for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)..

  • Collection of radiology images and videosUp to 10 years

    Collect and archive radiology images and videos obtained during esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EDG)-endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in high risk individuals undergoing screening and surveillance tests. An imaging dataset designed for studies of promising imaging biomarkers and developing AI-assisted algorithms can be collected within10 years.
