A blood test may offer a way to detect the most common form of pancreatic cancer while still in its early stages, a new study shows.
Fascinating!!!

British scientists may have discovered a cure for cancer — by accident. As The Telegraph reports, “Researchers at Cardiff University were analyzing blood from a bank in Wales, looking for immune cells that could fight bacteria, when they found an entirely new type of T-cell. That new immune cell...
What is going on in Israel? Seems like so much good news is coming from there!!

The new treatment is tolerable for the human body.
More money for pancreatic cancer research!!!
https://www.pancan.org/news/big-win-congress-creates-dedicated-6-million-pancreatic-cancer-research-program/#
Pancreatic cancer gets its own research program totaling $6 million through the Department of Defense’s (DoD) Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program.
Great explanation of the very promising Israeli protocol we keep hearing about!!!
"Seventy-seven percent of patients were able to achieve disease control rate," said Philip Serlin, chief executive officer of BioLineRx.
Israeli scientists find way to treat deadly pancreatic cancer in 14 days
The tumor in one mouse that was injected with human cancer cells completely disappeared.
More good news! Some day . . .
14 days after receiving the treatment, the mice with pancreatic cancer cells transplanted from humans experienced a 90% reduction in tumors.
The latest cancer research at South Dakota School of Mines could change the lives of millions.
New cancer vaccine trial helped kill cancer cells in Mayo patient
Mayo Clinic has finished its first clinical trial, and researchers say the vaccine effectively helped kill cancer cells.
"A Phase I clinical trial using microvesicles for cancer treatment is set to begin soon in the USA, focusing on pancreatic cancer. Microvesicles could not only offer more effective drug delivery but would actually provide a safer alternative to chemotherapy, since researchers would be able to target the treatment to cancer cells only."

Microvesicles could provide a promising novel approach to cancer therapy say researchers in a novel study.
OK, this is fascinating.
From one of their press releases: NeoTherma Oncology is developing VectRx™, a noninvasive thermal oncology therapeutic device system for treatment of a wide range of cancers in addition to Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma, the eighth most common cancer but the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the United States. VectRx is designed to ‘plug and play’ with the global installed base of MRI scanners to deliver non-invasive, image-guided adjuvant thermal oncology therapy, which is expected to increase life expectancy and improve quality of life of patients who receive it in addition to standard-of-care radio-, chemo- and immuno- therapies.

Here is a follow up article about a young man who hasn’t been to the test for pancreatic cancer. We posted a video about this in August 2016, three years ago!
Looking at other articles, it looks like there are still questions about this method and it has not yet been put into production. Prayers for all those who continue to do research into early detection of pancreatic cancer.

At only 15 years old, Jack Andraka from Crownsville, Maryland, is making a big impact in medicine by inventing his own medical breakthrough that has the potential to save an untold number of lives. Andraka created a device with the ability to detect pancreatic cancer much earlier on. This could mean...
So great to see this ongoing research! This article is fascinating. My dad was just lamenting the lack of early detection of pancreatic cancer and genetic screening. Baby steps!

BOSTON - Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers with limited treatment options. It typically comes with an especially poor prognosis due to its lack of symptoms until advanced stages and its ability to resist many anticancer therapies. Identifying genes involved in its development may lea...
