Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to validate a pretreatment prognostic score (Heidelberg Prognostic Pancreatic Cancer Score - HELPP) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is the HELPP score able to predict median overall survival in a prospective multi-institutional cohort of patients with pretherapeutic localized non-metastatic pancreatic cancer?
* Is the HELPP score able to predict median recurrence-free survival and patterns of recurrence after resection of pancreatic cancer?

Conditions

  • Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Primary Outcome Measures

  • Median overall survival (Date of diagnosis to date of death; assessed up to 60 months)
    Median overall survival from the time of diagnosis with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma to time of death due to any cause.

Countries

Austria

Locations and Investigators

  • Department of General Surgery, Division of Visceral Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria (Recruiting)
