About this trial
This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer and without cancer to evaluate tests for early cancer detection. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with and without cancer to study in the laboratory may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of cancers.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Provision of blinded reference set of cancer versus non-cancer blood samples
Diagnostic ability will be assessed across the entire cohort of 2000 subjects by estimating the sensitivity and specificity with 95% confidence intervals.
Secondary outcomes
Test performance at the time of initial cancer diagnosis by tumor type
Diagnostic ability is assessed within each cancer type and within each cancer type and stage combination by estimating the sensitivity and specificity with 95% confidence intervals. The width of these confidence intervals will vary by sample size and the sensitivity and specificity rates.
Test performance at the time of initial cancer diagnosis by clinical stage
Diagnostic ability is assessed within each cancer stage and within each cancer type and stage combination by estimating the sensitivity and specificity with 95% confidence intervals. The width of these confidence intervals will vary by sample size and the sensitivity and specificity rates.
