By purchasing this blend, you will be supporting the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, whose mission is to take action to improve the lives of everyone impacted by pancreatic cancer by advancing scientific research, building community, sharing knowledge, and advocating for patients.
- More than 64,000 Americans will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer this year.
- Pancreatic cancer is the 10th most diagnosed cancer in the U.S.
- Pancreatic cancer has the highest mortality rate of all major cancers. It is the 3rd leading cause of cancer related deaths in the U.S.
- Pancreatic tumors are surrounded by a dense tissue layer, called a stroma, making it difficult for treatment to reach the tumor. Researchers are studying ways to get treatment through the stroma to make it more effective.
Your support will further the research, advocacy, patient services, and community initiatives of the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network to create a world in which all patients with pancreatic cancer will thrive.
