NARRATIVE The high morbidity and mortality of pancreatic cancer can easily be attributed to the late stage at which clinicians are able to properly diagnose this disease due to a dearth of early-stage tools to accurately grade dysplasia. With an increasing rate of pancreatic cysts being incidentally discovered through routine imaging analyses, there is a growing unmet need for clinical diagnostics that can diagnose patients actually at risk while protecting the non-malignant population from burdensome, unnecessary treatment. This proposal seeks to produce a multidimensional assay panel that will accurately inform clinicians decision-making using single, low-volume (down to 1 µL) clinical samples in an effort to reduce unnecessary surgical interventions.
