Study on risk factors for gallbladder cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study follows people with and without gallbladder disease to find out what increases the risk of gallbladder cancer. It may help identify who needs closer monitoring.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 79 years old.
- You either have a benign (non-cancerous) gallbladder condition, such as polyps or gallstones, or you are healthy with no gallbladder issues.
- You are willing to sign a consent form and participate in follow-up visits.
- You do not have severe mental illness or serious heart, lung, or kidney disease.

This trial is studying people with gallbladder cancer, abnormal cell changes (dysplasia), or gallstones. It aims to learn more about these conditions, possibly before or after treatment, or before gallbladder removal surgery.
This study collects information and blood samples from people with gallbladder cancer to build a database. It helps researchers learn more about the disease and may lead to better treatments in the future.
This study looks at genetic and molecular patterns in people with bile duct or gallbladder cancers, and compares them with people without cancer (or with chronic liver disease). It may help researchers understand why these cancers happen and how to spot risk earlier.
This study looks at gut bacteria (your microbiome) in people with gallstones to better understand what’s going on in the body. It includes adults having gallbladder removal surgery, and it may help researchers find better ways to predict or treat gallstone disease.
This study is collecting medical information and blood samples from people with bile duct or gallbladder tumors to build a database that can help doctors better understand these conditions and improve future treatments.
This study looks at tumor tissue samples from people with bile duct or gallbladder cancer to find biomarkers (clues in the tumor) that might help guide future treatment. By studying these samples, researchers hope to understand more about these cancers and improve care.
