Study to track gallbladder cancer risk factors over time
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study follows people with gallbladder problems and healthy people to learn what factors predict gallbladder cancer. It may help doctors spot risks earlier and understand which conditions are more concerning.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 to under 80.
- You either have a non-cancer (benign) gallbladder condition found on imaging, or you do not have gallbladder disease.
- You can sign the informed consent form.
- You do not have severe mental illness or severe heart, lung, or kidney disease.
- You are willing to agree to and complete follow-up visits (check-ins over time).

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 builds a database for gallbladder cancer by collecting medical information and blood samples from patients. It helps doctors better understand the disease and improve future treatments.
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 builds a research database and a “multiomics” biobank (stored samples for lab testing) from people with benign and malignant bile duct or gallbladder conditions. It may help researchers understand these diseases better and improve future testing and treatments.
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 looks at lab markers (including genetic tests) to predict how people with bile duct cancer respond to treatment. Your answers and samples may help doctors personalize care for bile duct cancer in the future.
