Identification of New Candidate Genes for Hereditary Predisposition to Uveal Melanoma

In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Only 20% of familial uveal melanomas are explained by a hereditary predisposition, implying the presence of as yet unknown hereditary predispositions. This hypothesis is reinforced by epidemiological studies revealing an excess risk of prostate cancer, thyroid cancer and leukemia in patients who have developed uveal melanoma, even though these cancers are not part of the tumor spectrum of known hereditary predispositions to uveal melanoma (BAP1, MBD4). The identification of new candidate genes, once validated, would enable us to offer these families appropriate surveillance.
