Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for adults who have a family history of different types of cancer or who have been diagnosed with cancer themselves. Participants will provide a blood sample for genetic testing to help researchers understand the genetic links to cancer.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
- I have a family history of cancer.
- I have been diagnosed with cancer.
- I have a family history of 5 or more different cancers.
- I can provide a blood sample for testing.
- I can receive genetic counseling.
- I have at least one affected and one unaffected family member who can take part.
You may not be able to join if
- I cannot safely provide a blood sample.
- I cannot receive genetic counseling.
- My family has a known high-risk cancer gene.
- My family is not suitable for genetic evaluation.

About This Trial
The purpose of this study is to identify novel gene mutations which have contributed to significant personal and family history of cancer. Adults with and without cancer will be accrued to the study. Participants qualify to take part in this research study because someone in their family has been diagnosed with or because they themselves have a cancer diagnosis.
