Cohort 5 Individuals without history of PDAC who are not otherwise engaged in pancreas surveillance at a participating site may be invited to participate in the PRECEDE database and to donate a biosample (e.g. blood, saliva, and/or buccal swab) for discovery studies. This may include relatives of individuals in Cohorts 1-4,6, and the Cyst Cohort. Cohort 6a Individuals diagnosed with PDAC after enrollment in PRECEDE meeting any of the following criteria: 1. Family history includes at least one first degree relative with PDAC, or 2 relatives with PDAC who are first degree related to each other 2. Personal or family history of a pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline variant in ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, CDKN2A, EPCAM, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PALB2,PMS2, PRSS1, STK11 Cohort 6b Individuals with a personal history of PDAC meeting any of the following criteria: 1. Family history includes at least one first degree relative with PDAC, or 2 relatives with PDAC who are first degree related to each other 2. Personal or family history of a pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline variant in ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, CDKN2A, EPCAM, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PALB2,PMS2, PRSS1, STK11 3. Diagnosed ≤ age 45 Cyst Cohort Individuals with a personal history of a pancreatic cystic neoplasm not meeting any criteria for Cohorts 1-3 or 6 (no known family history of PDAC, no known pathogenic germline variants linked to PDAC risk)

Detailed Description
The main objective of the PRECEDE Consortium is to build a shared resource to drive research in critical areas necessary for early detection and prevention of PDAC. The PRECEDE Consortium is an observational prospective cohort study, with single or serial biosample collection (every 6-12 months) in defined high-risk groups. A standardized procedure for collection and processing of human blood for the PRECEDE Consortium will be applied to all blood samples collected as part of the study. Barcoded samples will be stored at the clinical centers, using the specific labels for the PRECEDE study and corresponding data will be entered into the study database. Clinical data and outcomes will be obtained from institutional databases or clinical records to correlate patient information with laboratory results from biospecimens obtained for research. Patients will be followed by their attending physician and receive the standard follow-up care after the procedure in which biospecimen was obtained. It is the intent that biospecimens will be made available to all consortium investigators.
