Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to collect information and blood samples to try to learn why some people develop cancers and tumors, why some families have more cancers than others, and whether certain genes or regions of DNA (the genetic material of cells) affect a person's risk of getting cancer. This is an investigational study. Up to 1500 patients and family members will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

Eligible Conditions
  • Aniridia
  • Kidney Cancer
