NCT01580241

Brief Summary

The investigators believe DCAMKL-1 is a stem cell tumor marker and is elevated in patients with pancreatic cancer. The investigators would like to analyze its expression pre and post treatment, to gauge the correlation between current pancreatic cancer therapies and the expression of DCAMKL-1

Study Population

Human patients with pancreatic cancer undergo various treatments for pancreatic cancer. We will examine the expression of Dcamkl-1 pre and post therapy (including, chemotherapy only, surgery only, neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies) to correlate treatment with a change in DCAMKl-1 expression.

You may qualify if:

  • pancreatic cancer

You may not qualify if:
