The National Cancer Institute and the U.S. Department of Defense are conducting a research study of testicular cancer, the STEED Study, among members of the U.S. armed forces. Although a rare cancer, testicular cancer is the most common cancer among military servicemen and has been increasing in number of cases during the past several decades.

Despite this, very little is known about the causes of this cancer. Scientists are trying to learn more about this cancer so they can come up with suggestions to prevent the disease and reduce the number of people getting the disease. Please help us by agreeing to participate. Your participation is the key to the success of this research study.
