About the Study
This study collects health information and DNA samples, such as blood or saliva, from participants to help researchers better understand cancer risk and early detection. Researchers will study genetic, medical and lifestyle information over time to learn how cancer develops and how it may be detected earlier or prevented. The goal is to improve how doctors identify people at higher risk and develop better approaches for early detection and cancer prevention.
What the Study Involves
Enrolled participants may be asked to:
- Complete surveys about your health, lifestyle and family history
- Provide samples such as blood, saliva, urine, stool, or other tissues during routine visits
- Provide health updates over time
This Study is Open To:
People who may have an increased risk of cancer, including:
- People with a personal or family history of cancer or possible inherited cancer risk (includes those who have not had genetic testing or had a negative result)
- People with lifestyle or environmental risk factors (such as smoking, certain infections, or exposures)
- Cancer survivors who may have an increased risk due to prior treatments
- People with precancerous conditions or abnormal findings that may develop into cancer, including breast, colon, lung, skin, gynecologic, or prostate pre-cancers
- Family members of participants and healthy volunteers
This study is also open to family members of participants or healthy individuals interested in participating.
This Study is Not Open To:
The study is open to all individuals and does not have specific exclusion criteria. Eligibility will be reviewed by the study team.
