   pancreatic cancer Online is your resource for treatment and self help options,both conventional and alternative, for pancreatic cancer.  
   http://www.healthyfoundations.com/pancreatic/
   
   Extractions: Welcome to Pancreatic Cancer online, my attempt to share all the information I've come across in my reasearch into pancreatic cancer and the alternative treatment options that I've come across in my research. My name is David Rosenberg, and my father, Mort Rosenberg, passed away in 1994 from pancreatic cancer. During this time, I spent a great deal of time researching any treatment options I could find that had any positive results for pancreatic cancer. I looked for both medical and alternative therapy options, and the only criterea I used was that the option show positive, verifiable results for survival of pancreatic cancer. Since I know how quick and deadly this disease is, I thought I should try to share the information I came across so that people interested in looking for alternatives for PC wouldn't have to start from scratch in their research. While I don't claim to have information on all the alternatives out there, I have tried to put up information on those alternatives for pancreatic cancer that have these kind of verifiable positive results of any kind. During our research, we come across a myriad of product and treatment options and from these we culled the ones that made sense to us. We have broken these options into two categories:

    Extractions: Pancreatic Cancer: An Agenda for Action Report of the Pancreatic Cancer Progress Review Group February 2001 (Click here to view in PDF format) Co-Chairs: Scott Kern, M.D.; Margaret Tempero, M.D. Executive Director: Barbara Conley, M.D. Table of Contents Executive Summary Health of the Field and Overarching Issues Research Priorities Tumor Biology ... Top of Page Pancreatic cancer is a devastating disease that swiftly robs patients of both quality and quantity of life. It is the fifth leading cause of cancer death in the United States. In 2001, an estimated 29,200 new cases will be diagnosed, and 28,900 people will die from the disease. Most of these tumors will be ductal adenocarcinomas, from which there currently is little chance of long-term survival median survival is six months or less, and only four percent of patients are alive five years after diagnosis. Given its incidence and almost universal fatality, substantially increased research efforts are clearly warranted to understand, prevent, and control this disease. Pancreatic cancer has been understudied in both basic research laboratories and the clinic.In terms of total research dollars, total numbers of researchers, and numbers of researchers who are highly focused on this disease, pancreatic cancer lags significantly behind all of the most common tumors, despite their far more favorable survival rates.For example, in 1999, pancreatic cancer research received only $17.3 million in National Cancer Institute (NCI) funding.

    http://www.pancreatica.org/faq.html
    
    Extractions: (answers to frequently asked questions) This section consists of our version of "answers" to very general pre-selected questions about pancreatic cancer. This task is not easy, as there are controversies in virtually every aspect of its related diagnosis and treatment. Also, information regarding such treatment is in a constant state of flux, with the results of new studies often challenging assumptions or pushing our understandings just a little further along. Additionally, general guidelines frequently do not apply to individual circumstances. Each person's situation is unique. If a cookbook-approach could work well in these circumstances, doctors would not be needed. And make no mistake about it, in our view, a strong bond with a compassionate and knowledgeable physician-specialist is mandatory. Our brief answers are attempts to give a sense of overview to these very complicated subjects. There are whole books dedicated to many of these individual subjects, so our answers are (at best) summaries. Because they are designed as summaries, it is possible that whole areas of controversy are inadvertently (or intentionally) ignored or not given proper weight. So be careful when reading these answersall of the information given here needs to be checked out with your own doctor. And do not base any action or lack of action on these answers, they are meant for educational purposes only! Please read the
