This blog, published two years ago, discusses the rare form of pancreatic cancer Jobs had, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor.\nIt’s been 10 years since legendary Apple Inc., Co-founder Steve Jobs passed away at only 56 years old after battling pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, a rare form of\npancreatic cancer\n.\nPancreatic neuroendocrine tumors\n (or PNETs) account for less than 10% of all pancreatic cancer tumors and tend to grow slower than exocrine tumors, the most common type of pancreas tumors. Jobs survived eight years before dying of the disease on Oct. 5, 2011.\nThe five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is only 10%.\nSince PNETs are so uncommon,\ntreatment\noptions are not yet well-defined. Currently, there is no standard of care or standard treatment for these types of tumors.\nChemotherapy\n,\nradiation therapy\n, hormone therapy and\ntargeted therapy\nare just some of the treatment options. Treatments depend on whether the cancer may be removed by\nsurgery\n.\n \nThe\nPancreatic Cancer Action Network\n(PanCAN) is the only organization attacking pancreatic cancer on all fronts: \nresearch and clinical initiatives\n, \npatient services\n and \nadvocacy\n.\nPanCAN Patient Services\n can provide pancreatic cancer patients and their loved ones with free information and resources on PNETs or anything else related to the disease to help them make more informed decisions. Our PanCAN Patient Services team provides caring, compassionate support, a shoulder to lean on and free disease and treatment information, as well as services and resources, to the\npancreatic cancer\ncommunity.\nIn addition to direct patient support, PanCAN also funds and conducts\nresearch\nto better understand, diagnose and treat all types of pancreatic cancer. Research progress made in the lab and clinic is necessary to help patients feel better and live longer.\nA \ngrowing list\n of people in the public spotlight have faced pancreatic cancer, including tech innovators, entrepreneurs and influencers.\nIn addition, and connected to Jobs, Jef Raskin, developer of the Macintosh computer, passed away of pancreatic cancer in 2005. And, coincidentally, \nDag Kittlaus\n, creator of Siri, which was acquired by Apple in 2010, was diagnosed with the same exact cancer that took the life of Jobs.\nDonate today\nto support PanCAN’s vision to create a world in which every patient with pancreatic cancer will thrive.\nIf you or someone you know has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, contact \nPanCAN Patient Services\n at 877-272-6226.","attrs_markdown":"[![sliver](https:\/\/media.pancan.org\/images\/Sliver%20Banner\/sliver-ps26-tshirt-deadline-may31-desktop.png)](https:\/\/secure.pancan.org\/site\/SPageServer\/?pagename=purplestride_faq&fr_id=&utm_source=pancan.org&utm_medium=internal+web&utm_campaign=purplestride+fy26&utm_term=general+public&utm_content=silver+banner+tshite+deadline#tshirt)\n\n#### Get Our Latest News\\!\n- [![phone icon](https:\/\/pancan.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/CallPS_4X.png) CONTACT US](https:\/\/pancan.org\/contact-us\/)\n- [español](https:\/\/pancan.org\/es\/)\n- [Join Our Community](https:\/\/pancan.org\/news\/remembering-steve-jobs\/)\n- [View More](https:\/\/pancan.org\/?s=)\n\n- [FACING PANCREATIC CANCER](https:\/\/pancan.org\/news\/remembering-steve-jobs\/)\n  -

Editor’s note: It’s been 12 years since the passing of Steve Jobs. This blog, published two years ago, discusses the rare form of pancreatic cancer Jobs had, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. It’s been 10 years since legendary Apple Inc., Co-founder Steve Jobs passed away at only 56 years old after battling pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, a rare form of pancreatic cancer . Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (or PNETs) account for less than 10% of all pancreatic cancer tumors and tend to grow slower than exocrine tumors, the most common type of pancreas tumors. Jobs survived eight years before dying of the disease on Oct. 5, 2011. The five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is only 10%. Since PNETs are so uncommon, treatment options are not yet well-defined. Currently, there is no standard of care or standard treatment for these types of tumors. Chemotherapy , radiation therapy , hormone therapy and targeted therapy are just some of the treatment options. Treatments depend on whether the cancer may be removed by surgery . The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN) is the only organization attacking pancreatic cancer on all fronts: research and clinical initiatives , patient services and advocacy . PanCAN Patient Services can provide pancreatic cancer patients and their loved ones with free information and resources on PNETs or anything else related to the disease to help them make more informed decisions. Our PanCAN Patient Services team provides caring, compassionate support, a shoulder to lean on and free disease and treatment information, as well as services and resources, to the pancreatic cancer community. In addition to direct patient support, PanCAN also funds and conducts research to better understand, diagnose and treat all types of pancreatic cancer. Research progress made in the lab and clinic is necessary to help patients feel better and live longer. A growing list of people in the public spotlight have faced pancreatic cancer, including tech innovators, entrepreneurs and influencers. In addition, and connected to Jobs, Jef Raskin, developer of the Macintosh computer, passed away of pancreatic cancer in 2005. And, coincidentally, Dag Kittlaus , creator of Siri, which was acquired by Apple in 2010, was diagnosed with the same exact cancer that took the life of Jobs. Donate today to support PanCAN’s vision to create a world in which every patient with pancreatic cancer will thrive.

A [growing list](https://media.pancan.org/pdf/Public-Figures-Affected-PanCAN.pdf) of people in the public spotlight have faced pancreatic cancer, including tech innovators, entrepreneurs and influencers. In addition, and connected to Jobs, Jef Raskin, developer of the Macintosh computer, passed away of pancreatic cancer in 2005. And, coincidentally, [Dag Kittlaus](https://pancan.org/stories/survivors/siri-co-founder-ill-wear-purple-the-rest-of-my-life/), creator of Siri, which was acquired by Apple in 2010, was diagnosed with the same exact cancer that took the life of Jobs. ![Contact a PanCAN Patient Services Case Manager](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/icon-line-hand-heart-150x.png) [Donate today](https://secure.pancan.org/site/Donation2?df_id=1480&1480.donation=form1) to support PanCAN’s vision to create a world in which every patient with pancreatic cancer will thrive. *If you or someone you know has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, contact [PanCAN Patient Services](https://pancan.org/contact-us/) at 877-272-6226.* [Share]() [Tweet]() **More on:** - [Apple](https://pancan.org/tag/apple/) - [in the news](https://pancan.org/tag/in-the-news/) - [neuroendocrine tumors](https://pancan.org/tag/neuroendocrine-tumors/) - [Patient Central](https://pancan.org/tag/patient-central/) - [Steve Jobs](https://pancan.org/tag/steve-jobs/) **You may also be interested in...** [![Steve Jobs: Still Innovating, Six Years Later](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/steve-jobs-733x450-james-martin-cnet1.jpg)](https://pancan.org/news/steve-jobs-still-innovating-six-years-later/ "Steve Jobs: Still Innovating, Six Years Later") #### [Steve Jobs: Still Innovating, Six Years Later](https://pancan.org/news/steve-jobs-still-innovating-six-years-later/) [![5 Key Facts about PNETs](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/pancreas-3d-illustration-733x450.jpg)](https://pancan.org/news/5-key-facts-pnets/ "5 Key Facts about PNETs") #### [5 Key Facts about PNETs](https://pancan.org/news/5-key-facts-pnets/) [![FDA Approves Lutathera® for Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (PNETs)](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/iv-bag-500x313.jpg)](https://pancan.org/press-releases/fda-approves-lutathera/ "FDA Approves Lutathera® for Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (PNETs)") #### [FDA Approves Lutathera® for Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (PNETs)](https://pancan.org/press-releases/fda-approves-lutathera/) - [Most popular](https://pancan.org/news/remembering-steve-jobs/#mostpopular) - [Latest News](https://pancan.org/news/remembering-steve-jobs/#latestnews) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Blog_7SymptomsUpdated_v01_2025.10.14.jpg) [7 Pancreatic Cancer Symptoms and Signs You Should Know](https://pancan.org/news/7-pancreatic-cancer-symptoms-and-signs-you-should-know/) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/pancreas-rendering-blue-733x450.jpg) [What is Pancreatitis?](https://pancan.org/news/what-is-pancreatitis/) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/riced-cauliflower-bowl-733x450.jpg) [11 Easy-to-Digest Foods](https://pancan.org/news/11-easy-to-digest-foods/) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/BLOG_NovocureFDAApproval_Header_F_PUBLIC.png) [FDA Approves New Treatment for Patients with Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer: What You Need to Know](https://pancan.org/news/fda-approves-new-treatment-for-patients-with-locally-advanced-pancreatic-cancer-what-you-need-to-know/) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/female-doctor-consulting-patient-733x450.jpg) [5 Things to Know About Stage IV Pancreatic Cancer](https://pancan.org/news/5-things-to-know-about-stage-iv-pancreatic-cancer/) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/PS-blog.png) [Streaming & Striding for PanCAN PurpleStride](https://pancan.org/news/streaming-striding-for-pancan-purplestride/) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/1-Hero-Thad-.jpg) [A Q\&A with Streamer & Strider Thad Bargman](https://pancan.org/news/a-qa-with-streamer-strider-thad-bargman/) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/UPMC-Blog-Header.png) [UPMC Hillman Cancer Center Reinforces Commitment to the Community at PurpleStride Pittsburgh](https://pancan.org/news/upmc-hillman-cancer-center-reinforces-commitment-to-the-community-at-purplestride-pittsburgh/) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/research-spotlight-anna-berkenblit-1024x629.jpg) [Research Spotlight: Emerging Role of Blood-Based Cancer Detection Tests](https://pancan.org/news/research-spotlight/research-spotlight-emerging-role-of-blood-based-cancer-detection-tests/) ![image](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Weinstein-Family-Blog.png) [Q\&A: Honoring Rita, One Step at a Time](https://pancan.org/stories/qa-honoring-rita-one-step-at-a-time/) [More](https://pancan.org/news) **Facing Pancreatic Cancer?** ![Patient Services Case Manager](https://pancan.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/avatar-sidebar-img.jpg) **We're here to help** No one should face pancreatic cancer alone.

This blog, published two years ago, discusses the rare form of pancreatic cancer Jobs had, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor.* It’s been 10 years since legendary Apple Inc., Co-founder Steve Jobs passed away at only 56 years old after battling pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, a rare form of [pancreatic cancer](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/about-pancreatic-cancer/). [Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/about-pancreatic-cancer/types-of-pancreatic-cancer/endocrine-pancreatic-neuroendocrine-tumors/) (or PNETs) account for less than 10% of all pancreatic cancer tumors and tend to grow slower than exocrine tumors, the most common type of pancreas tumors. Jobs survived eight years before dying of the disease on Oct. 5, 2011. The five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is only 10%. Since PNETs are so uncommon, [treatment](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/treatment/) options are not yet well-defined. Currently, there is no standard of care or standard treatment for these types of tumors. [Chemotherapy](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/treatment/treatment-types/chemotherapy/), [radiation therapy](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/treatment/treatment-types/radiation-therapy/), hormone therapy and [targeted therapy](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/treatment/treatment-types/targeted-therapy/) are just some of the treatment options. Treatments depend on whether the cancer may be removed by [surgery](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/treatment/treatment-types/surgery/). The [Pancreatic Cancer Action Network](https://pancan.org/) (PanCAN) is the only organization attacking pancreatic cancer on all fronts: [research and clinical initiatives](https://pancan.org/research/), [patient services](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/patient-services/) and [advocacy](https://pancan.org/get-involved/advocacy/advocate-for-federal-research-funding/). [PanCAN Patient Services](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/patient-services/) can provide pancreatic cancer patients and their loved ones with free information and resources on PNETs or anything else related to the disease to help them make more informed decisions. Our PanCAN Patient Services team provides caring, compassionate support, a shoulder to lean on and free disease and treatment information, as well as services and resources, to the [pancreatic cancer](https://pancan.org/facing-pancreatic-cancer/about-pancreatic-cancer/) community. In addition to direct patient support, PanCAN also funds and conducts [research](https://pancan.org/research/) to better understand, diagnose and treat all types of pancreatic cancer. Research progress made in the lab and clinic is necessary to help patients feel better and live longer.
