Clinical Genetics Branch Eligibility Screening Survey

Starting soon

Conditions studied: Melanoma, Li-Fraumeni Syndrome, Pulmonary Blastoma, Chordoma, Congenital Bone Marrow Failure Syndromes, Costello Syndrome, Fanconi Anemia, CFC Syndrome (CFCS), Legius Syndrome, RASopathies

In brief

Background: Clinical Genetics Branch (CGB) researchers study individuals and populations at high genetic risk of cancer in order to improve our understanding of cancer and to improve cancer care. There are currently 6 open clinical genetics studies at the CGB eligible for this screening process. * 02C0052: Etiologic Investigation of Cancer Susceptibility in Inherited Bone Marrow Failure Syndromes: A Natural History Study (Cancer in Bone Marrow Failure) * 11C0255: Clinical, Epidemiologic, and Genetic Studies of Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (Li Fraumeni Syndrome Study) * 11C0034: DICER1-Related Pleuropulmonary Blastoma Cancer Predisposition Syndrome: A Natural History Study (Pleuropulmonary Blastoma) * 02C0211: Clinical, Laboratory, and Epidemiologic Characterization of Individuals and Families at High Risk of Melanoma (Melanoma-Prone Families) * 10CN188: Genetic Clues to Chordoma Etiology: A Protocol to Identify Sporadic Chordoma Patients for Studies of Cancer-susceptibility Genes (Sporadic Chordoma Study) The following studies have their own study-specific screeners. If you are interested in these studies, please click the links below to fill out the relevant study screener: * 001109: Defining the Natural History of Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Fanconi anemia (SCC Screening in FA): https://service.cancer.gov/fanconi * 20C0107: Clinical, Genetic, and Epidemiologic Study of Children and Adults with RASopathies (RASopathies Study): https://service.cancer.gov/myras Objective: To find people to participate in active CGB cancer research studies. Eligibility: People of any age who meet the eligibility criteria for one of the open CGB cancer research studies. You can learn more about the CGB cancer research studies by clicking on the links to the study-specific websites above. This typically involves a personal or family history of certain cancers that are being studied by researchers at CGB. Design: Participants will fill out a screening questionnaire to determine if they are eligible to participate in one or more CGB clinical genetics studies. The survey asks about personal health history, including cancer; family history; and genetic testing results and takes 15 to 20 minutes. Each study has its own eligibility criteria. Survey respondents will select which study (or studies) that are interested in participating in, and the relevant study team(s) will review the screener to determine eligibility to participate in the study. Participants who are determined to be eligible for a study based on their screener will be contacted by the respective study team to learn more about the study and to consent to enroll in the study if they choose to do so. Participants who consent to enroll in a study may be asked to provide medical records; samples such as blood, saliva, or other tissues; and to participate in activities such as phone interviews or surveys. They may be invited for evaluations at the clinical center. Every study activity is voluntary. None of the studies provide treatments. Participants may be contacted to consider enrolling in future studies.
