The PANcreatic DISEASE ReseArch (PANDoRA) consortium: an update

Objectives In recent years progress has been made to elucidate the genetic component of pancreatic cancer risk, but much remains to be done. Multicentric studies have been of the uttermost importance to identify genetic factors involved in neoplastic diseases. We have established the PANcreatic Disease ReseArch (PANDoRA) consortium to strengthen efforts of different research groups and have created a large bio- and databank aimed at uncovering new genetic factors for pancreatic cancer risk and survival.
