Summary

The study is a prospective, observational study evaluating the utility of endoscopic ultrasound or MRI for the identification of preneoplastic and neoplastic pancreatic lesions in patients at high risk for pancreatic cancer, specifically those with BRCA1/2, ATM, or PALB2 mutations.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Collection of data from endoscopic ultrasound or MRI/MRCP of the abdomen

Participants in this study should be undergoing pancreatic cancer screening with endoscopic ultrasound or MRI as part of their standard care. These should typically be done at least every 12 months, and the imaging tests will be ordered as routine clinical tests and will be billed to the participant's insurance. This study does not cover the costs of these screening tests, however the study will track the results of these screening tests.

OTHER

Blood sample collection for research

Up to 40mL of blood may be collected for analysis at each screening examination.
