LFS SIGNIFY Trial Looking for Volunteers

This just in from the people running the SIGNIFY trial for Li Fraumeni Syndrome:

We are conducting a small scale pilot study to investigate the use of whole body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in families with Li Fraumeni Syndrome.

We would like to enrol individuals in the trial who are between 18 and 60 years old and are known to have a genetic mutation (alteration) in the P53 gene as well as unrelated people who do not carry the gene mutation whose scan results can be used as controls.

All study participants will undergo a whole body MRI scan at the Royal Marsden Hospital, Sutton, Surrey.

If you are interested please contact SIGNIFY study coordinator Dr Emma Killick or another member of the SIGNIFY team at the Institute of Cancer Research on 0208 661 3375.
