PANCREATIC CANCER RESEARCH FUND.

Each year 800 people in the UK are diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer.

It is the 5th most common cause of cancer death and has the highest rate of death of all cancers.

There is no early detection test and treatment is limited.Because symptoms are initially very vague and generally dont appear until the disease is well advanced, the average survival time after diagnosis is 6 Months.

Despite the sepecially lethal nature of this disease , research is underfunded compared with other types of cancer.

PANCREATIC CANCER RESEARCH FUND IS THE ONLY EXCLUSIVELY FUNDING RESEARCH INTO CANCER THROUGHOUT THE UK.
