      abstract = {Cancer is one of the leading causes of rate mortality  worldwide.[1-3] Early treatment of the cancer can  significantly reduce the mortality.[4] Pancreatic Ductal  Adenocarcenoma (PDAC) is one of these cancers where patient  mortality is reduced by early detection and treatment.[4]  PDAC is one of the top 7 cancer-related diseases worldwide  that contributes to this mortality rate and is projected to  be the 3rd leading cause of cancer deaths by 2025.[5] In  most cases, PDAC remains asymptomatic during the early  developmental stages making it extremely difficult to  detect. Only a small percentage of patients end up  discovering the early-stage disease, usually as a result of  investigating other ailments[6-9], and receive invasive  surgical procedures and treatments to increase their life  expectancy. [5, 10] There is a significant unmet clinical  need to detect cancer, especially pancreatic cancer, in the  early stages where treatments are more effective.},
