Major study seeks genetic clues to why younger people get cancer

NCT ID NCT04955808

Summary

This study aims to understand why certain cancers develop at younger ages in people from different racial and ethnic backgrounds. Researchers will collect tumor tissue and blood samples from 2,400 patients during their regular cancer surgeries. By analyzing these samples, they hope to identify genetic changes that may explain early cancer onset and guide future research.
