50,000 volunteers needed to create massive health database
NCT ID NCT01708408
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is creating a large community registry and biorepository with 50,000 adults from Cabarrus County and Kannapolis. Participants provide health information and biological samples to help researchers better understand chronic diseases and improve medicine. It is an observational study, not a treatment trial.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this registry could provide a rich data and sample resource for many future studies, potentially leading to better understanding and treatment of chronic diseases.
What could go wrong
This is an observational registry, not a treatment trial. It does not test any intervention, so direct health benefits for participants are unlikely. The value depends on future research using the collected data.
