About the Study

The LiFT UP Study is a research project for individuals and families from around the world. The goal is to learn more about adults and children who have a change in the gene in their blood to better predict their specific cancer risks. This may be  (LFS) or something else, which we will examine in the LiFT UP Study. This is a collaborative study, so you may join even if you already participate in other LFS studies! 

Help us to learn more about cancer risks for families with  and other gene changes.

  • A genetic mutation found on genetic testing
  • A blood relative who has a genetic mutation
  • A finding on genetic testing and a diagnosis of "CHIP" or "ACE"
