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

Conditions
Study Arms (4)
Surgery group
Patients with pancreatic cancer who undergo surgical treatment only
Chemotherapy group
Patients with pancreatic cancer who undergo chemotherapy treatment only
Neoadjuvant group
Patients with pancreatic cancer who undergo neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery
Adjuvant group
Patients with pancreatic cancer who undergo surgery followed by chemotherapy
Eligibility Criteria
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:
- age \< 18, history of other types of cancer
