Abstract Background  Interleukin profiles can be used as biochemical markers regarding the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Aims  To assess CRP, CA 19-9, CEA levels, and interleukin-6, -10, and -17 profiles in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, chronic pancreatitis was compared with a control group, and the correlation with pancreatic cancer survival. Methods  A total of 87 patients were prospective divided in pancreatic cancer (n = 53), chronic pancreatitis (n = 22) ,and control group (n = 12). The diagnosis of PDAC was made histologically. The diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis was based on medical history, imaging methods, and endoscopic ultrasound. Systemic concentrations of interleukins were measured using ELISA kits. The patients were followed at 1, 3, and 6 months. Results  CRP, CA 19-9, and CEA were higher in the pancreatic cancer group (p
