This study aims to find better ways to treat melanoma in children, teenagers, and young adults. It may help improve care for patients under 30 years old with certain types of skin growths.
This study looks at small molecules in your blood (called the metabolome) using special tests. Researchers want to see if these molecules change depending on how your melanoma progresses, which may help improve future care.
This study looks at whether men and women who get melanoma (a type of skin cancer) have had more sun exposure at work compared to those who don't have melanoma. It aims to help find and prevent work-related skin cancers.
This study looks for genetic and environmental causes of melanoma in people up to age 30. It may help researchers understand why some young people get this type of skin cancer.
This study looks at the DNA and other biology from skin lesions (like melanoma or unusual pigmented moles) in children and teens. It aims to better understand what these tumors are and how they behave, using tissue samples collected during routine care.
This research study analyzes blood and tissue samples from melanoma patients to identify biological markers that could help doctors better understand and treat the disease. Researchers will examine archived tissue samples and blood work to develop improved diagnostic tools.
