Scientists hunt hidden genetic clues in families prone to rare eye cancer
NCT ID NCT06550674
Summary
This study aims to discover new inherited genes that increase the risk of uveal melanoma, a rare cancer of the eye. Researchers will analyze the complete genetic code of 50 patients with this cancer to look for shared, rare changes that might explain why it sometimes runs in families. The goal is to eventually help identify at-risk family members so they can receive appropriate monitoring.
