Early Detection of Pancreatic Cystic Neoplasms

Completed

Conditions studied: Pancreatic Cysts, Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm, Pancreatic Mucinous-Cystic Neoplasm, Cystic, Mucinous and/or Serous Neoplasm, Solid Pseudopapillary Tumour of the Pancreas

In brief

This research is being done to learn more about pancreatic cysts. The tests that are currently available are imperfect at determining exactly what type of pancreatic cyst a person has, which cysts contain cancer, or what the risk is of developing cancer in the future. The aim of this study is to use a combination of clinical, imaging, cyst fluid analysis, and molecular markers to try to help develop better tools to answer these questions.
