Gallicchio and colleagues assessed the feasibility of using the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program registries to enroll cancer survivors in research studies and to assess their willingness to engage in research activities. Over an 18-month time period, 992 survivors were enrolled at six SEER registries using a variety of approaches, with response rates ranging from 24.9% to 46.9%. High percentages of those enrolled were willing to complete a survey (90%), donate a biospecimen (91%), and consent to medical records review (82%).
