PON2 immunostain was performed in the primary cohort (10 benign and 23 PDAC cases). p53 and SMAD4 immunostains were qualitatively assessed and PON2 test was evaluated by semiquantitative H\u2010score.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      In the primary cohort, p53 aberrant expression and SMAD4 loss were identified in 74% and 48% of PDAC cases compared to none in benign lesions. The combination of p53 and SMAD4 achieved a superior performance with an area under the curve (AUC) value of 0.96, compared to either marker alone (AUC\u00a0=\u00a00.87 and 0.74, respectively). In the indeterminate cohort, p53 aberrant expression or SMAD4 loss was seen in 13 of 17 (76%) malignant follow\u2010up cases. PON2 was variably expressed in PDAC cases with H\u2010scores ranging from 110 to 290, significantly higher in PDACs compared to benign cases (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u00a0&lt;\u00a0.001).
