Scientists dig into old records to unlock secrets of rare adrenal cancer
NCT ID NCT04358107
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks back at medical records from 1,000 people with adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), a rare and serious cancer. Researchers want to see how factors like age, sex, race, and tumor burden relate to survival and treatment response. No new treatments are given; instead, the team analyzes data from previous studies to find patterns that could guide future care.
