TGen-Asuragen partner to advance pancreatic cancer research
Date:4/16/2010

t may be helpful in identifying those higher-risk individuals for new therapies that may prevent disease relapse," Dr. Weiss said.

TGen and Asuragen will work with blood samples collected from healthy individuals, those with pancreas abnormalities, and pancreatic cancer from collections developed through TGen's Pancreatic Cancer Biospecimens Repository, which is directed by Dr. Michael Demeure, a TGen Senior Investigator and endocrine surgeon. Other pancreatic cancer samples will come from a collection developed by the Pancreatic Cancer Research Team (PCRT), an international collaboration of pancreatic cancer investigators led, in part, by TGen.

"We are excited that our collection might help lead to earlier detection of pancreatic cancer and may lead to new prognostic biomarkers for this disease," said Dr. Demeure.
