Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is an exploratory, translational, non-interventional and multi-centre clinical study. The aim of the study is to identify predictive plasma biomarkers of response to chemotherapy in PDAC.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will involve two cohort groups, all patients involved will have PDAC.

Cohort A: Target is 80 resectable PDAC patients who will receive standard treatment of chemotherapy +/- radiotherapy

Cohort B:

* Cohort B1 = Target is 80 unresectable locally advanced PDAC patients who will receive standard treatment of chemotherapy +/- radiotherapy.
* Cohort B2 = Target is metastatic PDAC patients who will receive standard treatment of chemotherapy +/- radiotherapy.

Control patients: Target is 50, with acute pancreatitis admitted to hospital for observation/treatment.

Blood samples will be taken at the following time points:

* prior to resection, whenever feasible for cohort A
* prior to CT, for both cohort A and B
* during CT, for both cohort A and B
* follow-up, approximately every 3 to 6 months for two years for cohort A
