Factors associated with cancer worries in individuals participating in annual pancreatic cancer surveillance

In conclusion, this study identified ‘a family history of PDAC<50  years of age’ as the only predictor of cancer worries experienced after 2 years of surveillance in individuals at high risk of developing PDAC. This knowledge could help clinicians to timely identify individuals ‘at risk’ for high levels of cancer worries who would likely benefit from psych osocial support.
