Summary

The goal of this study is to develop an effective, sensitive blood test that can detect early tumours in patients with known or suspected hereditary cancer syndromes (HCS). If this new blood test is accurate, it could be used to screen patients for cancer and allow for earlier cancer detection. The study will also use questionnaires and interviews to understand how patients feel about incorporating these tests into routine medical care, and the perceptions of the medical value of test results.
