Summary
Brief summary
This study aims to identify inherited risk in individuals with sarcoma to aid in the creation of a research resource consisting of biospecimens and associated data. Who is it for? You may be eligible to join this study if you have been diagnosed with sarcoma. Study details Participants will be identified at key sarcoma clinics, asked to complete a questionnarie and provide biospecimens (blood and tissue). The biospecimens will be stored indefinitely in a tissue bank to be utilised by researchers investigating genetic factors contributing to cancer. Information obtained from the questionnaire will be used to ascertain the family history of cancer and other factors that may contribute to development of the disease. The ongoing nature of the project will enable continual provision of important practical information for clinicians and patients leading to more favourable outcomes. Sarcomas contribute disproportionately to cancer burden in our community, because they affect the young, treatment is costly and prolonged and morbidity and mortality is high. Genetic factors appear important in sarcomas, although they have not been well studied for the adult population. Early detection by identifying those at risk may lead to better prognoses. This project aims to create a vital research resource to enable further study into the genetic factors contributing to the hereditary risk of developing sarcoma.
