Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify novel gene mutations which have contributed to significant personal and family history of cancer. Adults with and without cancer will be accrued to the study. Participants qualify to take part in this research study because someone in their family has been diagnosed with or because they themselves have a cancer diagnosis. Participants' DNA and other clinical information will be obtained from a blood sample in order to study the genetic basis of cancer and related complications. All portions in the DNA that code for proteins (i.e., the exome) will be studied. Participant DNA sample and information about family structure and family medical history and ethnic origin may also be collected to better understand this information. Clinical information will be stored and biological samples, including DNA, will be kept for up to three (3) years after collection for future. Ultimately, once identified, the role of the specific genetics changes in the development of inherited cancer(s) will be characterized.

Primary Outcome

Number of participants with a family history of 5 or more discordant cancers that have monogenic germline variants identifiable with WES sequencing The diagnostic yield of monogenic germline variants will be calculated as the discovery rate for a monogenic pathogenic variant within each category (ie 10 pathogenic variants / 30 families = 33% yield rate). A 2-way ANOVA will be performed, with the null hypothesis being that "family history supportive of a known syndrome versus discordant cancers
