Scientists seek genetic clues to distinguish harmless from harmful tumors
NCT ID NCT01005654
Summary
This study aims to collect and analyze tissue samples from people who are already scheduled for surgery to remove endocrine tumors (like thyroid, adrenal, or pancreatic tumors). Researchers will study the genetic and molecular details of these tumors to learn how to better tell the difference between benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous) growths. The goal is to gather knowledge that could improve future diagnosis and treatment, but this study itself does not provide any experimental treatment to participants.
