Pancreatic cancer is one of the malignant tumors with the highest mortality rate in the world, with a 5-year survival rate of only 7.2%-9%. Because some patients are resistant to multiple chemotherapy drugs, and there are differences in drug sensitivity between individuals, the current pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) chemotherapy effect is not satisfactory. In order to improve the efficacy of chemotherapy and achieve precise treatment, it is important to establish an accurate and individualized PDAC research model. Because most of patients with PDAC have developed to advanced stage at the time of diagnosis, it is not suitable for surgery. That limits our ability to obtain tumor cells seriously. With the development of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) technique, it can be used not only to diagnose diseases, but also to provide specimens for molecular analysis and create valuable preclinical disease research models, so as to guide the selection of the most appropriate individualized treatment. EUS-FNB can obtain lesions without any treatment. Therefore, the preclinical disease research model established by EUS-FNB is more representative of the original tumor. However, compared with surgical specimens, the specimens obtained by EUS-FNB are smaller in size, which may affect the successful construction of research models in vitro. Therefore, the investigators plan to use EUS-FNB wet suction technique, a modified specimen acquisition method, to obtain PDAC tissue, and use it for primary cell culture, to explore the amount of tissue required for the successful cultivation of human-derived pancreatic cancer primary cells, so as to provide a prerequisite for the successful establishment of human-derived preclinical disease research model.
