Brief Summary

Pancreatic cancer represents the fourth cause of death by cancer in western countries. The only curative treatment is surgery but this one is possible only in 10 to 15 % of cases. To date, there are few biomarkers in circulating blood as prognostic or diagnostic markers in pancreatic cancer. The purpose of this study is to determine if the pancreatic tumor mobilization during its resection impacts the quantity of circulating tumor DNA in peripheral and portal blood.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Kinetic of circulating tumor DNA evaluation in resected pancreatic cancer.

    To analyse circulating tumor DNA rate in the portal vein and in peripheral blood at various times of pancreatic cancer resection. Kinetic to 1 day before surgery, during surgery and after surgery (1 day, 10days , one month, 3 months, 6 months and one year after surgery)

    Kinetic up to one year

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Overall survival

    Kinetic up to one year

  • Correlation between circulating tumor DNA rate and Ca19.9 dosage

    Kinetic up to one year

Study Arms (1)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Every patient taken care by Toulouse University Hospital for the resection of a non-metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma by whipple resection.
  • Patient aged over 18 years old
  • Patient having given his written consent
  • Patient with social insurance coverage

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who had surgery, but their pathological examination of the resected specimen does not contain adenocarcinoma.
  • Patient for whom the surgery was not realized (exploratory laparotomy)
