Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN)
PanCAN is the leading pancreatic cancer patient organisation; it pioneered free tumour molecular profiling for patients (Know Your Tumor) and runs an adaptive platform trial for a disease with few options.
Founded 1999. Know Your Tumor showed that ~25% of pancreatic cancers have actionable alterations and that matched therapy improved survival (Pishvaian, Lancet Oncol 2020), influencing NCCN's recommendation for germline and somatic testing in all patients. Precision Promise is a Bayesian adaptive phase 2/3 platform (first readouts 2024). PanCAN's Patient Services provide free case management, clinical trial finder and dietitian access; its advocacy helped double federal pancreatic cancer research funding.
