Summary

This study is testing whether samples of blood, urine, or saliva can spot cancer early in people who are at high risk. About 5,900 participants will provide samples and be followed for three years to see if any develop cancer. The goal is to find a simple, non-invasive way to detect cancer sooner, when it may be easier to treat.
