Patient Forward Access to Clinical and Technological Research: Genetic Influences on Cancer and Atopic Dermatitis
Completed
Conditions studied: Eczema/Atopic Dermatitis, Cancer
In brief
This Patient Forward study intends to conduct research to investigate potential genetic factors causing cancer and eczema/atopic dermatitis. The study utilizes a patient-centered design and is led by a collaborative team including The Manton Center for Orphan Disease Research, Inspire, Citizen Genetics and Pfizer. The Manton Center for Orphan Disease Research, a research program at Boston Children's Hospital that focuses on determining the genetic causes of rare and undiagnosed disorders, will work collaboratively with Inspire (inspire.com), a patient-focused research platform and social network with millions of users, to identify and recruit patients and family members for this genetic research study. Participants for this study will be asked to provide health information through surveys, questionnaires and/or interviews, and to provide a genetic sample through a blood draw or saliva sample. The study intends to combine this information to learn more about the genetic drivers in cancer and eczema/atopic dermatitis.
