  • Simplified description (AI rewritten)
  • Technical description (Original)

This study aims to find ways to detect pancreatic cancer early in people at higher risk. Pancreatic cancer is a disease where cells in the pancreas grow uncontrollably. This study is for people with a strong family history of pancreatic cancer, certain genetic mutations (changes in DNA), or high-risk pancreatic cysts (fluid-filled sacs in the pancreas). Participants will give blood samples, fill out questionnaires, and have certain medical tests to help researchers collect important information.

  • The study is observational, meaning no new treatments are given; it involves monitoring and collecting samples over time.
  • Participants need to be at least 18 years old with specific family history or medical conditions related to pancreatic cancer.
  • Participants will undergo routine medical procedures, such as blood tests, questionnaires, and possibly a pancreatic fluid collection during a standard medical exam.

Ineligibility includes those unable to consent, those with certain prior medical conditions, and those unable to speak or read English. If you fit the criteria and are interested, this study could help advance the understanding of pancreatic cancer detection.
