Given the poor prognosis of metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (mPDAC), closer disease monitoring through liquid biopsy, most frequently based on serial measurements of cell-free mutated ( cfDNA), has become a highly active research focus, aimed at improving patients' long-term outcomes. However, most of the available data show only a limited predictive and prognostic value of single-parameter-based methods. We hypothesized that a combined longitudinal analysis of cfDNA and novel protein biomarkers could improve risk stratification and molecular monitoring of patients with mPDAC.

Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy with the majority of patients presenting at a late stage with unresectable or metastatic disease. Even with first line treatment, median survival is approximately 11 months in patients with advanced PDAC. This report details the unique case of a patient that presented with peritoneal metastases from an adenocarcinoma of the body of the pancreas, had a remarkable response to palliative chemotherapy and is alive without evidence of disease 12 months following cessation of all active treatment.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers with a very poor 5-year survival rate and reduced therapeutic options when diagnosed in an advanced stage. The dismal prognosis of pancreatic cancer has guided significant efforts to discover novel biomarkers in order to anticipate diagnosis, increasing the population of patients who can benefit from curative surgical treatment. CA 19-9 is the reference biomarker that supports the diagnosis and guides the response to treatments.

Background: This study aimed to determine the prognostic survival impact of preoperative carbohydrate CA19-9 levels in resectable cholangiocarcinoma.
Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Embase databases were searched for articles published through April 28, 2023. The relationship between preoperative serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 and the prognosis of patients with resectable cholangiocarcinoma was analyzed.

Here, a label-free immunosensor was conducted using rGO/Collard-like BiS@Au nanocomposite system to detect carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) as a diagnostic biomarker for Pancreatic cancer. The unique morphology of Collard-like BiS increases its specific surface area, which allows it to immobilize more materials and biomolecules on its surface. To realize the covalent bonding of bismuth-based materials with biomolecules, bismuth-based materials were functionalized by Au NPs.
