CA pancreas is associated with alcohol consumption and this could just be a blip. I wonder if chemicals which are hepatotoxic may also be toxic to the pancreas???? Benzene and pesticides come to mind. Is it worth doing a search for cancer pancreas & chemical exposure etc? This came up but it is old: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1035428/ Another one: http://www.livestrong.com/article/135358-causes-cancer-pancreas/ Try contacting Guys Poions unit and see if they can assist - they may have some ideas.
