Ongoing Failure to Deliver Guideline-Concordant Care for Patients with Pancreatic Cancer.

ABSTRACT: (1) Background: Comprehensive evaluation of guideline-concordant care (GCC) across all PDAC stages has yet to be thoroughly conducted. This study aimed to characterize treatment patterns and assess factors associated with receiving GCC among patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in California.
