Aspiring pancreatic cancer survivor here. This is excellent news. Part of the reason this is such a deadly form of cancer is that there are often no symptoms until it's far too late. I know that there is a blood marker - CA19 - can indicate issues with the pancreas. I don't know if this blood test is related to that or anything, but any advancements on this disease are great and sorely needed.
