Cancer of the pancreas is now the fourth most common cause of cancerβrelated death in the United States. The diagnosis of this disease is difficult and the therapeutic results are discouraging. Recognizing these factors, the National Cancer Institute has funded the National Pancreatic Cancer Project as of 1 January 1975, in an attempt to stimulate new and more active research in this field at both the basic and the clinical levels.
