We recently caught up with grant recipient, Dr Belinda Lee. Dr Lee and her team are advancing research into non-invasive ways to detect pancreatic cancer earlier. Their work has shown that urine contains a broader range of proteins than plasma, opening up new possibilities for identifying biomarkers linked to pancreatic cancer.

By refining their approach across growing patient cohorts, the team has developed a promising pancreatic cancer protein signature. Each new finding brings us closer to what matters most: earlier, more reliable detection through a simple, accessible test.

The next phase will expand the dataset and develop a targeted assay to further improve accuracy and reliability, with the long-term goal of creating a clinically accessible test that could benefit people across Australia.

This is progress in action. Progress made possible by a community committed to creating a fairer chance for everyone affected by pancreatic cancer.

đź’ś Thank you. Every donation, every fundraiser and every act of support helps drive research like this forward.

It was amazing to join the Tacca Industries team yesterday as suppliers, customers, friends and family came together for the inaugural Clem Tacca Cup Golf Day to honour the life of Clem Tacca.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of sponsors, players and supporters, the event raised over $30,000 for Pankind. The dollars raised goes towards funding pancreatic cancer research and support.

A heartfelt thank you to Gary Dawson and the Charity Challenge Golf Series team, along with major sponsors Tacca Industries, Emjay Insurance Brokers, Westpac St George, Acorp and P Squared, for making the day possible.

Together, we're creating a future where more people affected by pancreatic cancer have a fairer chance. đź’ś

From awareness to impact. From hope to outcomes. đź’ś

Driving Impact: Pankind's Strategy 2026–2030 is released.

Our mission is clear: to triple pancreatic cancer survival rates by 2030 and significantly improve quality of life for everyone affected.

We’ll do this through four strategic priorities:
🟣 New Treatment Programs
🟣 Early Detection Initiatives
🟣 Advocacy
🟣 Care & Support Services

Together, these priorities will help accelerate research, improve access to care, strengthen support services and create better outcomes for people impacted by pancreatic cancer.

This is more than a strategy. It’s a commitment to progress. A commitment to fairness. A commitment to ensuring pancreatic cancer is never left out of the conversation.

Because everyone affected by pancreatic cancer deserves a fair chance.

Download the full strategy via the link below and see how we're driving impact for Australians affected by pancreatic cancer.

Pancreatic cancer has been making positive headlines recently, thanks to the outstanding results from the RASolute 302 trial results that has seen improvements in the livelihood of pancreatic cancer patients.

While this is amazing for the pancreatic cancer community, it has yet to hit our shores. Pankind are dedicated to bringing advancements like this to our community. In the meantime, clinical trials and raising funds for research remain a top priority.

Meet Dee, an inspiring Sydney mum who was given just 9 to 12 months to live after her initial cancer treatment.

Thanks to a rare opportunity to join a Phase 1 targeted clinical trial, Dee’s story took a hopeful turn. The treatment is far gentler on her body and is successfully shrinking her tumour. Giving her the chance to truly live again.

Today, Dee is back at work, rebuilding her strength, and making plans for months ahead instead of days.

Her progress is a powerful reminder of what pancreatic cancer research can achieve. đź’ś

But while Dee’s story and the RASolute 302 trial results bring hope, thousands of Australians are still waiting for better treatment options. Current standard treatments can be incredibly harsh, and for many patients, there simply isn’t time to wait for access to clinical trials.

Let’s make it a fair fight and prove that all that hope is never wasted.

Make a tax deductible donation today 💜 You can help fund vital pancreatic cancer research, creating more stories like Dee’s and bringing hope to families facing this devastating disease.

It's rare that a room full of doctors and researchers rises to its feet, rarer still when the subject is pancreatic cancer.

After years and years of limited progress, it is overwhelming to see the positive results from the RASolute 302 trial being received with such admiration and well deserved celebration.

This is the start.
This is the start of better treatment options.
This is the start of creating a fair fight for those affected by pancreatic cancer.

Pancreatic cancer taking centre stage at ASCO is proof of the incredible advancements, and that change is happening right now. A huge congratulations to the teams involved, you all deserve the applause.

This news is not just exciting for researchers, doctors and oncologists but for all families, friends and patients who have been waiting for news like this.

This is for everyone who never gave up fighting, it proves that their hope isn’t wasted 💜

Visit our LinkedIn to see the standing ovation that has made us feel so proud to be on a mission to improve survival rates and the quality of life for all those impacted by this devastating disease. đź”—https://ow.ly/kG0c50Z60fR

We recently caught up with Professor John Hooper to discuss the remarkable progress of his project 🔬

Over the years, Pankind has been funding Prof. Hooper’s research, ensuring a long term investment into the future of pancreatic cancer research. Pankind most recently, awarded Professor Hooper $300,000 through our New Treatment Accelerator Grant.

This funding built on earlier Pankind-supported research, enabling the project to reach a major milestone: a Phase 1 clinical trial.

Professor Hooper’s team is utilising innovative theranostic technology, a two-step approach designed to first detect pancreatic cancer early and then, if successful, treat it. After 24 years of development in the laboratory, this new antibody therapy is now being evaluated in people for the first time.

Beyond pancreatic cancer, Professor Hooper is also exploring this technology’s potential in ovarian cancer, demonstrating how these discoveries may have broader applications. This project exemplifies the impact that long term and consistent funding into pancreatic cancer research can have in the lives of those affected by this disease.

We are proud to be a part of this journey and we are proud of what Prof. Hooper has achieved đź’ś

Meet Chop aka Jason!

In memory of his dear friend Wayne, Jason is embarked on the journey of a lifetime to change the future of pancreatic cancer.

Wayne was a man of immense kindness and a devoted family man whose life was cut short by a devastating diagnosis. Inspired by Wayne’s unwavering positivity and the heartbreaking reality of the disease, Jason and his friends at the Harley Roadshow rode The Big Purple Lap 🏍️

Together, they road around around Australia, over 13,800 kilometres in just 13 days on their Harley-Davidsons.

He is aiming to raise $30,000 for Pankind to fund vital research and support those facing the same battle Wayne fought so bravely.

"This ride will be a significant challenge, but it pales in comparison to the battle faced by those living with this disease."

They've finished their challenge, however you can still donate to their page!! đź’ś

If you want to support Chop, you can connect with his fundraiser here: https://ow.ly/57A550Z3Hb9

“If everyone does one little thing to help, one person becomes two, then four and before you know it, you’ve created something truly powerful.”

For David, those words are more than a belief, they’re a personal mission.

After losing both his beloved Nonno and his “second mother,” Claire, to pancreatic cancer, David chose to channel his grief into action.

What began as a small group of family and friends taking part in Brisbane’s Put Your Foot Down walk has grown into a passionate community of supporters. Over the past four years, David has proudly volunteered as Brisbane’s Walk Manager for Pankind, helping bring people together to raise vital funds and awareness for pancreatic cancer.

Thanks to dedicated volunteers like David, what starts with one person can grow into a movement that makes a real difference.

This year, David will once again be at Brisbane’s Put Your Foot Down Walk alongside our incredible volunteer team. Be sure to stop by and say hello on the day.

Let David's determination be the reason you make this year the year you volunteer. To get involved, contact us at [email protected] or follow the link in below.
