Summary

This study collects blood, urine, saliva, and tissue samples from nearly 6,000 people who have or may have cancer, including rare inherited forms. The samples are stored and used for research to understand the genetic and molecular basis of cancer. No new treatment is being tested—this is purely a knowledge-gathering effort.
