A team of heartburn drug injury lawyers and class action attorneys is investigating potential lawsuit and settlement cases of individuals who claim to have been diagnosed with pancreatic adenocarcinoma after taking Zantac or Ranitidine for heartburn.
An adenocarcinoma of the pancreas is a type of exocrine pancreas cancer that begins in the cells lining the pancreatic duct (the cells that produce enzymes to assist in digestion). Approximately 60–70 percent of pancreatic adenocarcinomas are located in the head of the pancreas, while about 10-15 percent are found in the tail of the pancreas, and about 5-10 percent are loctaed in the body of the pancreas.
Pancreatic adenocarcinomas are the most common type of pancreatic cancer, accounting for about 90% of all pancreatic cancer cases. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is considered a highly aggressive malignancy associated with very poor clinical prognosis (due in part to its typically late presentation of symptoms and resistance to various forms of traditional treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation treatment).
