People respond to the environment in different ways. Some may be born with genes that make them more likely to get this type of skin cancer. Genes are made up of DNA. DNA damage is one of the first steps in developing cancer. Each person has many ways to repair normal damage to their genes. Some people may have a lower level of this repair and that may make them more likely to get cancer. Some genes are important for DNA repair. The genes we want to test are thought to affect the rate at which DNA can be repaired. We also want to find out if sun habits are related to these levels of DNA repair or genetic mutations.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Second or multiple primary melanoma cases will be identified at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, the Yale University Pigmented Lesion Clinic, or from among those subjects who participated in the earlier case-control study in Connecticut.\n\nFirst primary melanoma cases will be identified and referred to the study staff by participating physicians on the Melanoma Disease Management Team at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.\n\nRandom digit dialing will be used to locate 100 population-based controls for this study.
