Groups and Cohorts

Group/Cohort	Intervention/treatment
Familial pancreas cancer relatives High Risk Group 2 (familial pancreatic cancer relatives): > 55 years old or 10 years younger than the age of youngest relative with pancreatic cancer, and come from a family with 2 or more members with a history of pancreatic cancer (2 of which have a first-degree relationship consistent with familial pancreatic cancer), and have a first-degree relationship with at least one of the relatives with pancreatic cancer. If there are 2 or more affected blood relatives, at least 1 must be a first-degree relative of the individual being screened	Drug: Human synthetic secretin I.V. bolus of 0.2 mcg/kg secretin given to induce pancreas juice secretion. This intervention offered for all cohorts
Group 1 germline mutation carrier High Risk Group 3 (Group 1 germline mutation carriers with an associated with an estimated lifetime risk of pancreatic cancer of ~10% or higher): > 50 years old or 10 years younger than the age of the youngest relative with pancreatic cancer, and b. The Patient is a carrier of a confirmed BRCA2, or PALB2 mutation, and there is 1 or more pancreatic cancer diagnoses in the family, one of whom is a first- or second-degree relative of the subject to be screened. The Patient is a carrier of a confirmed FAMMM (p16/CDKN2A), age 40 years or older, regardless of family history of pancreas cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :

Evaluate pancreatic juice for early cancer markers. [ Time Frame: 10 years ]
Aim #1: To evaluate pancreatic fluid mutations and circulating pancreatic epithelial cells as accurate markers of neoplasia by comparing their prevalence in cases with sporadic pancreatic neoplasia to healthy and disease controls.

Secondary Outcome Measures :

Compare pancreas juice with pancreas cyst fluid [ Time Frame: 10 years ]
Aim #2: To compare the prevalence of pancreatic fluid mutations and circulating pancreatic epithelial cells among a prospective cohort of individuals with sporadic pancreatic cysts undergoing pancreatic surveillance.

Other Outcome Measures:

Time disease progression and prevalence [ Time Frame: 10 years ]
Aim #3: To determine the prevalence of pancreatic lesions, pancreatic fluid mutations and circulating pancreatic epithelial cells among a large cohort of high-risk individuals undergoing pancreatic screening and surveillance of a new cohort in which screening is begun at age >55.

Biospecimen Retention: Samples With DNA

approximately 40 ml of blood approximately 5-20 ml duodenal fluid approximately 5-20 ml pancreas juice (optional) approximately 10 ml saliva (optional) pancreas cyst fluid (if available)
