Morehouse Total Cancer Care Protocol
The Morehouse Total Cancer Care Protocol is an observational study aiming to improve cancer care, especially for African Americans. It involves collecting biological samples like blood and tissue, along with health information from your medical records and surveys. Researchers hope to use this information to find new ways to detect and treat cancer, and to develop personalized medicine. You can join if you are 18 or older and have been diagnosed with cancer or are at risk for cancer. The study aims to improve the standard of cancer care, with data being collected for up to 20 years. The current recruitment status is unclear.
