• Data collection arrangements

  The ESPAC translational tissue bank has collected the following material from patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and carcinoma of the ampulla of vater registered/randomised on the ESPAC clinical study.

  - Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded Tissue (FFPE)

• Research programme

  The collection holds samples taken with consent for use in any project related to pancreatic disease. Applications are welcome for studies in all areas but, where samples are limited, priority will be given to research directly related to identifying markers in the primary tumour which predict improved probability of survival after adjuvant therapy following resection for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and ampullary tumours
