Clinical trials save lives. They are an essential

Clinical trials save lives. They are an essential step in translating research into life-saving treatments. But for too many Canadian pancreatic cancer patients, clinical trials are inaccessible.

As a proud member of CanReview, we are working to accelerate a more coordinated, efficient, and inclusive clinical trial landscape in Canada.

Transforming the future of pancreatic cancer demands bold innovation, and that is precisely what Pancreatic Cancer Canada is doing.

NeoPancONE, a breakthrough study funded entirely by PCC donors, was highlighted at this year’s @ascocancer Conference.

Pancreatic cancer is striking earlier and so are the ripple effects. Early-onset cases are on the rise, and loved ones are becoming caregivers younger and younger.

It is time that support mirrored reality. Pancreatic Cancer Canada and @wellspringcan are building programs for patients and caregivers under 55, and we need your voice to get it right. If this is your reality, join our focus group by clicking the link in our bio.

Wind, rain, sun... and 1,100 km later. 7 Days: Cycling for Survival brought together a community like no other — riders, volunteers, sponsors, donors, and supporters who gave everything to change pancreatic cancer outcomes.

The ride is over, but our mission continues.

We’re still racing toward our $400,000 goal — because awareness alone won’t save lives. Every dollar gets us closer to making pancreatic cancer survival a reality.

During #NationalCaregiverMonth, we want to express

During #NationalCaregiverMonth, we want to express our gratitude and respect to those who care for someone facing pancreatic cancer. Whether it’s holding a hand during treatment, managing daily tasks, or simply being there; caregivers show up with a resilience that often goes unseen. But the emotional, mental, and physical toll is real, and rarely talked about.

It’s why we offer free support services to anyone affected by pancreatic cancer - including caregivers. Our peer support volunteers are Canadians who’ve walked a similar path, offering not only compassion, but real understanding.
