Background  Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is the deadliest cancer worldwide with a 98% loss‐of‐life expectancy and a 30% increase in the disability‐adjusted life years during the last decade in Europe. The disease cannot be effectively prevented nor being early detected. When diagnosed, 80% of patients have tumors that are in incurable stages, while for those who undergo surgery, 80% of patients will present with local or distant metastasis. Importantly, chemotherapies are far from being effective.    Objective  Pancreatic cancer represents a great challenge and, at the same time, a huge opportunity for advancing our understanding on the basis of the disease, the molecular profiles, that would lead to develop tools for early detection and effective treatments, thus, boosting patient survival.    Results  Research on pancreatic cancer has being receiving little or minimal funds from European funding bodies. UEG is calling for public‐private partnerships that would effectively fund research on pancreatic cancer.    Conclusion  This would increase our understanding of this disease and better treatment, through pan‐European efforts that take advantage of the strong academic European research landscape on pancreatic cancer, and the contribution by the industry of all sizes.
