Summary

This study looks at how ongoing stress, anxiety, and poor sleep might affect the course of pancreatic cancer. Researchers will ask 320 participants to fill out simple questionnaires about their mental well-being and will also measure stress markers in leftover blood samples. The goal is to see if higher stress levels are linked to shorter survival or worse treatment response.
