This study looks at ways to help people with Lynch syndrome share their diagnosis with family members, and to help genetic counselors support them. It may help more at-risk relatives get screened.
This study looks at the genetics and health of people with Lynch syndrome, a condition that raises the risk for certain cancers. Researchers want to learn more about how different genetic changes affect health over time.
This study checks tumor tissue from colorectal cancer surgery for signs of Lynch syndrome, a genetic condition that increases cancer risk. If found, you can get genetic counseling to help you and your family.
This study follows adults with Lynch syndrome (an inherited gene change) using regular questionnaires and tracking health over time. It may help researchers understand how the condition progresses and improve care for people with these gene mutations.
This registry study looks at how many people with colon cancer also have Lynch syndrome, an inherited condition that can affect cancer risk. If you enroll, your care team collects basic information from your diagnosis to better estimate how common it is.
This study helps people in Switzerland who already have a known inherited cancer gene change understand what it means for them and their family. It focuses on people with specific known mutations related to hereditary breast/ovarian cancer and Lynch syndrome.
