Characteristics of pancreas cancers diagnosed in PLCO
Summary
We will look at characteristics of pancreas cancers diagnosed in PLCO. We will compare characteristics across randomization arms.

2. Did case survival and cause of death vary by study arm?
3. Explore data to determine if incidental diagnoses of pancreas cancer can be identified.
