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.

"It was such an awesome experience for our whole family to be given the opportunity to participate in such a great and meaningful Walk!”

"This weekend was so amazing, seeing all those people come together for this cause was inspiring."

"Thanks for the great organization and I look forward to walking or running in the future to help this cause."

"The weekend was absolutely amazing and inspiring!! I had a fantastic time raising funds for this charity."

Pancreatica.org is a top-rated internet resource containing unique educational resources for patients, their caregivers, physicians and researchers, that displays an impressive concentration of scientific articles.

Currently, no standard marker exists to diagnose the disease in early stages. Our aim is to support the development of a marker for early diagnosis. If the disease is found even a year earlier, outcomes will begin to improve. LEARN MORE
