🔬 What makes pancreatic cancer cells unique? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 👩🔬 Not only do pancreatic cancer cells grow unusually fast, but they can also break off from the tumor early in the disease and spread. We know that scar tissue tends to form around the tumor, which may serve as a barrier to therapeutic agents. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 💜 There’s a complex interplay between the tumor and its environment which further protects the tumor from chemotherapy and radiation and helps it evade the immune system. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 👉 Our mission is to advance the early detection of pancreatic cancer to transform the landscape of this disease and improve survival rates.

Thank you Specific Performance and Pryor Cashman for raising funds for PRECEDE in memory of Jeffrey Johnson who is missed every day.

Can you live without a pancreas? 💟 A: Yes, you can live without a pancreas, but you will be diabetic, which means you will have to take insulin regularly. You will also need to take enzyme pills to help with the digestion of food. 💜 👉 Visit www.trovanow.com to learn how you can get involved and donate today. #TrovaNOW #precede #pancreaticcancer #pancreas #cancer #cancerresearch #cancerawareness #knowthesymptoms #findacure #survivor #health #awareness #earlydetection

💜 No matter what the statistics say, there is always a way. Unfortunately, pancreatic cancer survival statistics are extremely low, for patients diagnosed after its spread the 5-year survival rate is just 5-15%. It's time to change that.

Immunovia has successfully completed the analytical validation of its next-gen test for early-stage pancreatic cancer detection, with the help of PRECEDE Biosamples. The test showed impressive results in precision, sensitivity, stability, and robustness, ensuring reliability across multiple experiments. This marks a major milestone in providing a convenient and reliable test for early pancreatic cancer detection. Now, they move to clinical validation, expected to be completed by December 2024. www.trovanow.com 💜🎗️ #trovanow #precede #immunovia #PancreaticCancer #EarlyDetection #MedicalAdvances #CancerResearch #pancreas #cancer #cancerresearch #cancerawareness #knowthesymptoms #findacure #survivor #health #awareness

Last weekend, we honored the beautiful life of Allison Campbell Fomon, a beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend. Allie’s warmth, joy, and infectious zest for life were felt by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing her. She was a connector, a leader, and a source of light for all who crossed her path. Her mother, Robbi, and her husband, Brad, poured their hearts into this event, bringing together devoted friends and supporters to help fund our mission for early detection of pancreatic cancer. Allie spent her life giving to those around her, and even in her absence, her legacy of love and service lives on. The funds raised from this event will help fund seven research sites, supporting the crucial early detection of pancreatic cancer—a cause Allie would have undoubtedly championed. Together, we carry forward Allie's light and honor her memory by making a difference in the lives of future patients and families. Thank you to all who donated and supported this important cause. Your generosity will help save lives. 💜

Why is the pancreas a vital organ? 💜 The pancreas is a gland that is part of the digestive system. It produces insulin and other important enzymes and hormones that help break down foods into smaller molecules that can be absorbed in the intestines. It plays an important role in healthy digestion is vital for the absorption of vitamins and nutrients which support the liver, kidneys, nervous system and cardiovascular system. Unfortunately, the pancreas is difficult to reach and it's complexities make it susceptible to various disorders including pancreatic cancer. 🧬 Join us in our mission to learn more about this vital organ and advance the early detection of pancreatic cancer: www.trovaNOW.com #trovanow #precede #pancreaticcancer #pancreas #cancer #cancerresearch #cancerawareness #knowthesymptoms #findacure #survivor #health #awareness #earlydetection

Q: Why are you passionate about studying pancreatic cancer? "It is a tough, unsolved problem that really hasn’t had the right attention or investment. When I was a surgical resident, it struck me as an area that was a significant unmet need. It was an almost uniformly lethal disease. Most patients had advanced disease at the time of diagnosis, and the number of patients we could help surgically was low. Even the minority of patients that we were able to resect, the recurrence rate was high. I was an energetic young physician at the time, and I thought I could make a difference here. It was clear that an investment in bringing clinicians and scientists together to tackle the problem could be very beneficial. I worked to set up a multidisciplinary clinic for pancreatic cancer, and invite talented faculty to work together. It became very clear that this type of collaborative approach was the right one to move forward." 🩺 Diane M. Simeone, MD an internationally recognized surgeon and scientist is our Chief Scientific Advisor, TrovaNOW. Her mission, like ours, is to improve the odds for the more than 50,000 patients in the U.S. diagnosed with pancreatic cancer every year.
