Research and clinical trials for pancreatic cancer

All cancer treatments have to be fully researched before they can be used for everyone. This is so we know that they work, they are better than the treatments already available and they are safe.

Researchers are looking into the causes, diagnosis, treatment and side effects of pancreatic cancer and its treatment. They are also looking into whether new treatments are safe and better than those currently available.
