The Prevention of Progression to Pancreatic Cancer Trial (The 3P-C Trial)
This is a multi-center randomized double-blind placebo controlled trial of patients with high-risk intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) of the pancreas. The primary objective is to evaluate the effect of sulindac on the presence or absence of progression of IPMN after 3 years of treatment. Patients without contraindications will be …

DCE MRI in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer
This clinical trial studies an imaging technique known as dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE MRI) in identifying the presence of pancreatic cancer. DCE MRI is a procedure that takes detailed pictures of functional and structural properties inside the body using magnetic field imaging. These images may better characterize …

Using Radiogenomics to Predict Malignant Potential of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms of the Pancreas
The Florida Pancreas Collaborative wants to partner with individuals who are known to have, or are suspected to have a pancreatic lesion, tumor, cyst, mass, cancer, or pancreatitis and are undergoing diagnosis and treatment at a participating institution. The goals of this project are to build a large database of …

Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm (IPMN) Database - A Tool to Predict Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer is the 5th leading cause of cancer death in Australia. Surgery remains the most effective treatment for early pancreatic cancer and currently the only potential for cure. Unfortunately, many patients present with advanced disease and are not suitable for surgery. Therefore, it is vital to detect these cancers …

Population-Based Analysis of Neoplastic Changes in Cystic Lesions of the Pancreas. (UCSF PCR)
Pancreatic cysts are found incidentally on 15-50% of CT and MRIs for all indications and their prevalence is increasing. Many of these cysts may be precursors to pancreatic cancer, and thus pose a substantial risk, however, the vast majority are benign. Increased detection of pancreatic cysts provides an opportunity to …

Pancreatic Cancer and Oral Microbiome
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a solid malignancy with a dismal prognosis. It has a 5-year survival rate of approximately 8%. This is due to the usually late diagnosis, to chemoresistance, and to intrinsic biological aggressiveness. Risk factors for PC are smoking, alcohol, chronic pancreatitis, obesity, and diabetes. Recently, research has …
