Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is third leading cause of cancer death in the United States, a lethal disease with no screening strategy. Although diagnosis at an early stage is associated with improved survival, clinical detection of PDAC is typically at an advanced symptomatic stage when best in class therapies have limited impact on survival. In recent years this status quo has been challenged by the identification of novel risk factors, molecular markers of early-stage disease and innovations in pancreatic imaging. There is now expert consensus that screening may be pursued in a cohort of individuals with increased likelihood of developing PDAC based on genetic and familial risk. This review summarizes the known risk factors of PDAC, current knowledge and recent observations pertinent to early detection of PDAC in these risk groups and outlines future approaches that will potentially advance the field.
