Summary

This study aims to better understand rare solid tumors by collecting biological samples (like blood, saliva, and tumor tissue) and health information from up to 10,000 people over many years. Participants include people with a rare tumor, those with a genetic risk for one, and their relatives. The goal is to learn how these tumors develop, which could lead to better screening, prevention, and treatments in the future.
