Conditions

Pancreatic Cancer, Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma, PDAC, PDAC - Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Brief summary

This study aims to facilitate discovery and validation of tests for early detection in subjects at high risk for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and to facilitate the use of state-of-the-art machine learning-based algorithms that utilize databases and images with the purpose of identifying early stages of pancreatic cancer, as well as people at high-risk.The study also aims to provide a platform for development of an interventional protocol for early detection of PDAC.

Interventions

OTHERBio-specimen Collection: Blood

At study enrollment and prior to any pancreatic surgery and prior to or at least 3 days after the most recent GI endoscopy procedure, approximately 50 ml (10 teaspoons) of blood will be drawn from all participants and be processed according to standardized study biospecimen protocol. Serial blood collection will be offered to all the participants depending on the subjects' tier classification. Blood draw will be completed at Mayo Clinic when the subjects come back, or study blood draw kit may be sent for external collection.

OTHERBio-specimen Collection: Pancreatic Juice

This may be collected from research subjects every time they are undergoing a clinically indicated endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (EGD) procedure. Pancreatic juice will not be collected if PI or provider determines it is not in the best interest of the subject. Pancreatic juice collection will be performed prior to fine needle aspiration (FNA), brushing or stent placements if performed during the same endoscopic procedure.

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTMRI

A research MRI with contrast that includes a Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) will be offered to patients in the Tier 2 cohort at baseline and at 3-year intervals if not done as standard of care. Gadolinium based intravascular contrast will be administered for this procedure. Sedation for claustrophobia/anxiety per clinical protocol will be an option if the patients requested. Subject would be notified of any concerning results. A safety questionnaire will be completed by the study team before ordering the MRI. Clinically indicated MRIs for the TIER 1 participants will be used and collected as part of the registry. If a clinical MRI/MRCP has been performed between 0 to 3 months before obtaining consent, the prior clinical MRI/MRCP could be used to obtain baseline imaging data.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Collection of biospecimen samples (blood and pancreatic juice)Up to 10 yearsSufficient biospecimens (blood and pancreatic juice) will be collected in 10 years from participants to provide a resource for nested case-control studies of promising biomarkers for discovery and validation of tests for early detection in subjects at high risk for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)..
Collection of radiology images and videosUp to 10 yearsCollect and archive radiology images and videos obtained during esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EDG)-endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in high risk individuals undergoing screening and surveillance tests. An imaging dataset designed for studies of promising imaging biomarkers and developing AI-assisted algorithms can be collected within10 years.
