Brief Title: The LINFU® U.S. Registry in Patients With Clinical Signs and/or Symptoms of Disease
Official Title: The LINFU® U.S. Registry for the Detection of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in Patients With Clinical Signs and/or Symptoms of Disease
Study ID: NCT06276738
Brief Summary: Evaluate LINFU® in patients who exhibit signs or symptoms (i.e. jaundice, abdominal pain, weight loss, nausea and vomiting etc.) suggestive of pancreatic cancer (PDAC) or have evidence of imaging studies suggestive of PDAC.
Detailed Description: Adenocyte has developed a proprietary pancreatic cancer detection method, LINFU®, (Low Intensity Non-Focused Ultrasound excitation of the pancreas) that increases the sensitivity of pancreatic juice cytology. LINFU® excitation of circulating microbubbles increases the exfoliation of pancreatic ductal cells. The sensitivity of cytological examination of the pancreatic fluid obtained by LINFU® can also be potentially enhanced by neural network-based computer-assisted analysis. In this study, LINFU® will be evaluated in patients who exhibit symptoms suggestive of PDAC (i.e. jaundice, abdominal pain, weight loss, nausea and vomiting etc.) or have evidence of imaging studies suggestive of PDAC. In addition, patients with PDAC identified only with LINFU® and not detected with other diagnostic tests will be followed long term to determine the progression rate of these tumors and to determine whether LINFU® results in earlier intervention, treatment and improvement in patient outcomes.
