Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer and without cancer to evaluate tests for early cancer detection. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with and without cancer to study in the laboratory may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of cancers.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Questionnaire Administration
  • Procedure: Biospecimen Collection

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
  1. To provide a blinded reference set of cancer versus (vs.) non-cancer blood samples that will be used to validate assays for inclusion in a prospective clinical trial focused on utility of blood-based multi-cancer early detection.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Evaluate test performance at the time of initial cancer diagnosis by tumor type.

  2. Evaluate test performance at the time of initial cancer diagnosis by clinical stage.

OUTLINE:

Participants complete a questionnaire at baseline. Participants undergo collection of blood samples at registration and at 12 months after registration. Patients with a cancer diagnosis may undergo collection of tissue samples at registration and 12 months after registration.

After completion of study, participants are followed up at 1 year.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Provision of blinded reference set of cancer versus non-cancer blood samples [Up to 1 year]

    Diagnostic ability will be assessed across the entire cohort of 2000 subjects by estimating the sensitivity and specificity with 95% confidence intervals.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Test performance at the time of initial cancer diagnosis by tumor type [Up to 1 year]

    Diagnostic ability is assessed within each cancer type and within each cancer type and stage combination by estimating the sensitivity and specificity with 95% confidence intervals. The width of these confidence intervals will vary by sample size and the sensitivity and specificity rates.

  2. Test performance at the time of initial cancer diagnosis by clinical stage [Up to 1 year]

    Diagnostic ability is assessed within each cancer stage and within each cancer type and stage combination by estimating the sensitivity and specificity with 95% confidence intervals. The width of these confidence intervals will vary by sample size and the sensitivity and specificity rates.
