Summary

This study looks at whether measuring hand grip strength in adults with pancreatic cancer can give doctors useful information about how the disease and treatment are progressing. About 50 participants will squeeze a handheld device during regular clinic visits and answer questions about their well-being. The goal is to see if grip strength changes relate to body composition, quality of life, or tumor response.
