Summary

This study creates a database of information from people diagnosed with colorectal cancer before age 50. Researchers will compare this to data from older patients to find differences and potential causes. Participants complete a risk factor questionnaire and provide medical information over time. The goal is to improve understanding and future care for young onset colorectal cancer.
