Grand received in 2020
DCCC has funded 200,000 DKKK to the preparation of this national and multidisciplinary investigator-initiated study.
Pancreatic cancer is a very deadly disease, and only very few survive after 5 years. It is known, that Circulating tumour (ct)DNA is a strong indicator for recurrence and survival. This study will investigate if circulating ctDNA in blood among patients with pancreatic cancer, who can be operated, can give better treatment, increased survival ship and identify recurrence earlier than CT-scanning.
Multidisciplinary organisation
Study preparations are done in collaboration with the Danish Pancreas Cancer Group (DPCG) and the study will be anchored in DCCC Danish Research Centre for circulating tumour DNA guided treatment.
