Pancreatic cancer is caused by inherited and acquired mutations in specific cancer-associated genes. The discovery of the most common genetic alterations in pancreatic cancer has not only provided insight into the fundamental pathways driving the progression from a normal cell, to non-invasive precursor lesions, to widely metastatic disease, but recent genetic discoveries have also opened new opportunities for gene-based approaches to early detection, personalized treatment, and molecular classification of pancreatic neoplasms.
