Environment and tumor risk in SDHx carriers
Part of Cancer, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study looks at whether things in the environment (like chemicals or lifestyle) affect the risk of developing certain tumors in people who have a change in their SDHx gene. It compares people with the gene change who have had a related tumor to those who haven't.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a change (mutation) in the SDHx gene.
- You or your family must have been diagnosed with a specific type of tumor linked to SDHx (if you are in the 'case' group).
- You must be able to understand and agree to join the study on your own.
- You cannot be under legal guardianship or protection.

This study looks at people and families who have changes in the DDX41 gene or similar genes that may increase the risk of cancer. By joining, you can help researchers learn more about these gene changes and how they affect health.
This study looks at families where a blood cancer (hemopathy) may be linked to a change in the DDX41 gene. It tests family members to see if they have the same gene change, which can help understand hereditary risks.
This study looks at people who have rare or unusual cancers or who may have an inherited (family) risk for cancer. It helps researchers learn what genetic or other factors might be involved by collecting family history and medical records, including pathology slides.
This study looks at how a specific DNA genetic change (variant) runs within cancer families. It may help researchers better understand cancer risk and improve genetic testing and interpretation.
This study looks at DNA patterns in families where cancer may run in families, to better understand inherited (passed-down) cancer risk. You may be able to help even if you’re not sure whether your cancer is genetic—your family history and, if needed, medical records or tumor samples can be used.
This study looks at whether DNA (from a tumor or related samples) can help identify inherited cancer risk in people who develop cancer at a young age. It may help families learn more about risk factors and guide future screening or prevention.
