The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $737,444 Cooperative Agreement under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research (CFDA 93.393) program to the University of Hawaii to conduct research aimed at "Uncovering Causal Protein Markers to Characterize Pancreatic Cancer Etiology and Improve Risk Prediction." The project seeks to: 1) identify putative causal protein biomarkers for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) risk using novel research methods; 2) functionally characterize top protein biomarkers for their roles in pancreatic cancer biology; and 3) develop and validate improved PDAC risk prediction models by incorporating newly identified candidate protein biomarkers. The University of Hawaii will collaborate with Baylor College of Medicine as a sub-awardee to support this research initiative, which aims to generate new knowledge about pancreatic cancer etiology and enhance risk prediction capabilities.
