    Sixty minutes last night's show- Sunday 23rd August 2015

    Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive and deadly cancers, in part because often by the time it's diagnosed the disease has spread to other parts of the body.

    So when news broke in 2013 that a test had been developed that might detect early pancreatic cancer, the research world not only took notice, it went into shock -- for the test hadn't been developed by some renowned cancer research institute, but by a boy wonder, a 15-year-old high school freshman named Jack Andraka. He then convinced an eminent cancer researcher to let him use his lab to develop his theory, all before he even had a license to drive. And while the test must undergo years of clinical trials, the biotech industry has already beaten a path to Jack's
    door.

    This was seen as a major development - a test for the early detection of pancreatic cancer

    Yet he clearly stated last night that he hoped it would be in the market within 5-10 years as the FDA requires rigorous testing and findings
