Brief Summary
Due to the generally poor prognosis, with no chance of long-term survival, health related quality of life is a very important objective in the treatment of patients with pancreatic cancer. The non-interventional, prospective, multicentre PARAGON study is desinged to evaluate the health-related quality of life in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer, by analyzing the course of QoL throughout all applied therapy lines for patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, measured according to EORTC scoring manual and patient reported outcome.

Patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma
Patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer receiving will be asked to fill in an EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire and additional questionnaires on worries about quality of life impairments and physical constitiution every 8 weeks, over the entire course of treatment, starting with neo-/adjuvant or 1st line therapy follow. There is no restriction on type of therapy. No further intervention.
Interventions
EORTC-Q30 questionnaire, additonal questionnaire on worries about quality of life impairments and on physical condition every 8 weeks. No additional visits will be carried out for questionnaires. Questionnaires will be handed out to patients during routine visits.
Collection of archival tumor material for future translational projects. No biopsy will be performed in the context of this registry. Only tumor samples obtained in the context of standard of care and after explicit informed context will be used.
