The Circulating Cell-free Genome Atlas Study
Overview
Tab Title Description
Study type
ObservationalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.
- Interventional study (clinical trial) — studies new tests, treatments, drugs, surgical procedures or devices.
- Medical records research — uses historical information collected from medical records of large groups of people to study how diseases progress and which treatments and surgeries work best.

About this study
GRAIL is using deep sequencing of circulating cell-free nucleic acids (cfNAs) to develop assays to detect cancer early in blood. The purpose of this study is to collect biological samples from donors with a new diagnosis of cancer (blood and tumor tissue) and from donors who do not have a diagnosis of cancer (blood) in order to characterize the population heterogeneity in cancer and non-cancer subjects and to develop models for distinguishing cancer from non-cancer.
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
Inclusion Criteria:
Non-Cancer Arm Subjects
- Age 20 years or older.
- Able to provide a written informed consent.
Inclusion Criteria for Cancer Arm Subjects
- Age 20 years or older.
- Able to provide a written informed consent.
- Have either of the following:
- Confirmed cancer diagnosis (any stage I-IV, as well as carcinoma in situ (CIS)) within 90 days prior to or up to 42 days after study blood draw, based upon assessment of a pathological specimen (including, but not limited to, biopsy from primary tumor site, lymph node or metastatic lesion, or cytology specimen, or bone marrow or blood specimen for hematological malignancies); or
- A high suspicion for a cancer diagnosis by clinical and/or radiological assessment, with planned biopsy or surgical resection to establish a definitive diagnosis within 6 weeks (42 days) after study blood draw
Exclusion Criteria:
Non-Cancer Arm Subjects
- Known current or prior diagnosis of cancer except non-melanoma skin cancer.
- Exception: subjects with history of non-melanoma skin cancer; e.g., BCC or SCC that has been effectively and exclusively managed by local or focal therapies such as surgical resection, radiation therapy, cryotherapy or topical therapy, are eligible to enroll.
- Oral or IV corticosteroid use in past 14 days prior to blood draw.
- Pregnancy (by self-reporth of pregnancy status).
- Current febrile illness.
- Acute exacerbation or flare of an inflammatory condition requiring escalation in medical therapy within 14 days prior to blood draw.
- Recipient of organ transplant or prior non-autologous (allogeneic) bone marrow or stem cell transplant.
- Poor health status or unfit to tolerate blood draw.
Cancer Arm Subjects
- Known prior diagnosis of cancer separate from the confirmed or suspected cancer diagnosis associated with study enrollment.
- Exception: subjects with history of non-melanoma skin cancer; e.g,. BCC or SCC that has been effectively and exclusively managed by local or focal therapies such as surgical resection, radiation therapy, cryotherapy or topical therapy, are eligible to enroll.
- Currently receiving, or ever received, any of the following therapies to treat their current cancer: surgical management of the cancer beyond that required to establish the cancer diagnosis; local, regional or systemic chemotherapy including chemoembolization; targeted therapy, immunotherapy including cancer vaccines; hormone therapy; or radiation therapy.
- Pregnancy (by self-report of pregnancy status).
- Current febrile illness.
- Acute exacerbation or flare of an inflammatory condition requiring escalation in medical therapy within 14 days prior to blood draw.
- Recipient of organ transplant or prior non-autologous (allogeneic) bone marrow or stem cell transplant.
- Poor health status or unfit to tolerate blood draw.
