Core Tip	Because pancreatic cancer is usually detected at an advanced stage and there is a lack of treatment strategies for advanced disease, it remains one of the most lethal solid tumors. Genetic and epigenetic alterations, miRNAs and tumor microenvironment promote the development of pancreatic cancer from precursor lesions to localized disease and further to metastatic disease in several years. An effective screening strategy for pancreatic cancer is therefore needed. New-onset diabetes mellitus associated with pancreatic cancer and recently identified novel circulating biomarkers should be explored as potential screening markers.
