About
The purpose of this study is to test a double screening strategy for pancreatic cancer, based on a model developed using patient medical records. Investigators would also like to test whether adding specific blood tests, can further help identify people who have a higher risk of pancreatic cancer than the general population, and would benefit from imaging in order to detect cancer early.
Full description
This research aims to identify people who have a higher risk of pancreatic cancer than the general population, by testing a double-screening strategy for pancreatic cancer. The purpose is to allow early detection of cancer, which potentially leads to cure.
The double-screening will include a computer-based model developed using clinical data from medical records, and three different blood tests for early detection of pancreatic cancer.
Participation in this study involves having medical records followed up for up to three years, and a single donation of blood specimens.
