Brief Summary: RATIONALE Identification of genes that may be associated with developing certain types of cancer may someday provide important information about a persons risk of getting cancer

PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying to see if certain genes may be associated with cancer in patients with cancer of the breast prostate lung or colon and siblings of these patients
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Gather allele-sharing statistics at approximately 100 candidate loci throughout the human genome most likely to influence genetic risk of cancer
Use these allele-sharing statistics to test the interaction of each locus individually with cancer-associated rare alleles of HRAS1
Generalize this approach for one of four cancers breast colon lung or prostate using allele-sharing statistics to test the interaction of each locus with every other locus
Replicate positive results in a distinct set of sibling pairs with cancer
Examine when loci contributing to risk are detected the influence of this genetic background on clinical outcomes such as survival

OUTLINE Each patient-sibling pair completes a family history questionnaire about the incidence of cancer in the family Blood samples are obtained from both the patient and the sibling and both living parents if available

The blood samples are genotyped using approximately 300 micro-satellite markers flanking 100 candidate genes previously implicated in genetic risk for cancer Certain loci are a priority due to their association with HRAS1 BRCA1 and all known mismatch repair loci other repair genes such as ATM the Blooms syndrome locus and the XRCC group Other genes are also mapped

Patients do not receive the results of the genetic testing and the results do not influence the type and duration of treatment

Patients only are followed annually

PROJECTED ACCRUAL This study will accrue 1000 patient-sibling pairs for breast cancer After 18 months another 1000 patient-sibling pairs will be accrued for breast cancer Therefore up to 2000 patient-sibling pairs will be accrued over 5 years Feasibility of accruing pairs for lung colon and prostate cancer is being assessed
