Brief Summary
The vision of the "Lynch syndrome INtegrative Epidemiology And GEnetics" (LINEAGE) Consortium is to collaboratively improve the lives and longevity of individuals and families with Lynch syndrome. The mission of the LINEAGE Consortium is to collaboratively improve Lynch syndrome care through high-quality research. This consortium will provide intellectual and infrastructure support to facilitate development of research questions, collection of standardized data and biospecimens, support of grant applications, and generation of collaborative manuscripts. Our aims are to: I. Establish a prospective cohort of individuals with Lynch syndrome II. Collect standardized longitudinal clinical and biosample data to elucidate Lynch Syndrome epidemiology and gene-host interactions III. Promote intervention trials to improve cancer prevention and early detection in Lynch Syndrome

Study Arms (1)
Pateints with a germline variant in a mismatch repair gene
Individuals with germline genetic testing results showing a pathogenic, likely pathogenic or variant of uncertain significance in MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2 or EPCAM.
Eligibility Criteria
Individuals with Lynch Syndrome, defined as having a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant in a mismatch repair gene (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, EPCAM) on germline genetic testing.
You may qualify if:
- Adults age over 18 years
- Eligible patients must have at least one variant of uncertain significance (VUS), pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant (PV/LPV) in MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, or EPCAM, which will be confirmed by genetic testing results (obtained as part of routine care) and a review of the variant in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/).
- Individuals who are an obligate carrier of a LS PV/LPV that is confirmed in the family.
You may not qualify if:
- Age under 18

Biospecimen
A standardized procedure for collection and processing of human blood, stool, fresh frozen tissue, and formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue for the LINEAGE Consortium can be used for all biosamples collected as part of the study. Barcoded samples will be stored at the clinical centers, using the specific labels for the LINEAGE study and corresponding data will be entered into the study database. Any center-specific processing differences should also be recorded by each center.
