Pancreatic Cancer Detection Consortium (PCDC) Prospective Cohorts

Summary

This study evaluates individuals without pancreatic cancer, but who have been determined to be at higher-than-average lifetime risk of developing pancreatic cancer to help detect pancreatic cancer or other cancers at an earlier time when they might be more easily treated and cured.
