A Decision Support Tool for Pancreatic Cancer Screening -Aim 2
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Sept 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Pancreatic cancer has a rising incidence and poor survival. Early detection in high-risk individuals may substantially improve outcomes. Although guidelines recommend screening for individuals with hereditary cancer syndromes or certain genetic variants, pancreatic cancer screening remains uncertain due to limited evidence of mortality benefit, unclear screening strategies, potential harms, resource requirements, and low adherence. Shared decision-making between patients and providers is therefore essential, but no decision aid currently exists to support pancreatic cancer screening decisions. This record covers Aim 2, which will evaluate the acceptability, feasibility, and implementation of an electronic decision support tool designed to improve shared decision-making, value-concordant care, and screening adherence. The pilot study will also provide training in clinical trial methodology and support development toward an independent research career.
