WHY US? BECAUSE EARLY DIAGNOSIS IS KEY
91% of pancreatic cancer patients will die within five years of diagnosis. There is currently no detection test. If patients are diagnosed in time for surgery, their chance of surviving meaningfully increases. A key approach is to foster a marker to help diagnose the disease earlier.
Together with You our Mission is to promote awareness, increase education, and further pancreatic cancer research aimed at early diagnosis.

OUR MISSION
We are dedicated to promoting awareness, increasing education, and furthering pancreatic cancer research – specifically, research aimed at finding the disease earlier. Currently, only about 15% of those diagnosed with pancreatic cancer are eligible for potentially curative surgery. If the disease is found even one year earlier in an individual patient this figure can increase considerably.
Cancer Patients Alliance is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose initiatives include ToFightCancer and Pancreatica. All donations are tax-deductible. Recently, a seasoned specialist told us that we had the highest social good to donation ratio that they had ever seen.
We put all donations to serious use toward the mission of fighting pancreatic cancer.
Less than 8% of donated funds are used for management expenses.
