About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate if plasma ctDNA and eccDNA before resection for suspicion of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) can predict early recurrence and overall survival, and to investigate if plasma ctDNA combined with CT scan and endoscopic ultrasound surveillance increases the median overall survival compared with standard-of-care surveillance.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Sub-study 1: Suspicion of PDAC tumor stage I-III, scheduled for pancreatic resection, with or without preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Sub-study 2: .

PDAC tumor stage I-III

Has received intended curative resection (R0/R1) of PDAC

Disqualifiers

Other cancers (excluding skin cancer other than melanoma) later than 3 years before inclusion

Patients who are unlikely to comply with the protocol, inability to return for subsequent visits) and/or otherwise considered by the Investigator to be unlikely to complete the study
