Summary

This study collects tissue and blood samples from people with stomach or esophageal cancer, as well as those at high inherited risk, to learn how genes and proteins contribute to these cancers. Researchers aim to better understand the disease, not to test a new treatment. About 100 participants aged 18 and older will take part.
