First seen Feb 06, 2026 · Last updated May 18, 2026 · Updated 14 times
Summary
This study looked at whether a blood test could detect pancreatic cancer by finding circulating tumor cells (CTCs). The goal was to see if this test could be a less invasive alternative to the standard endoscopic biopsy, which requires anesthesia and carries some risks. The study enrolled 101 adults with non-metastatic pancreatic tumors, but it was terminated early, so results are limited.
