Summary

The goal of this observational study is to validate a pretreatment prognostic score (Heidelberg Prognostic Pancreatic Cancer Score - HELPP) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the HELPP score able to predict median overall survival in a prospective multi-institutional cohort of patients with pretherapeutic localized non-metastatic pancreatic cancer? * Is the HELPP score able to predict median recurrence-free survival and patterns of recurrence after resection of pancreatic cancer?
