Pancreatic cancer develops in the pancreatic ductal, acinar, and islet cells. Most pancreatic cancers are adenocarcinoma of pancreatic ductal (PDA) origin. Pancreatic cancer accounts for about 3 percent of all cancers in the U.S. Risk factors that can be changed include tobacco use, obesity, and workplace exposure to certain chemicals.

Providence Medical Group is currently enrolling patients for the following pancreatic cancer clinical trial:
