Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to set up a prospective, fit-for-purpose collection of human body material (HBM)-blood (serum, plasma, DNA) and tissue-and standardized clinical data of patients with cutaneous melanoma, non-melanoma skin cancer and healthy controls. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To create a biobank with samples of human body material (HBM): blood (serum/plasma/DNA) and tissue and clinical data of patients with cutaneous melanoma, non-melanoma and helathy controls. * To support future research questions (after specific approval of the Ethics Committee) by using the biobank (through satellite protocols). If there is a comparison group: Not applicable (umbrella protocol for collection only). Participants will: * Share demographics, medical and surgical history, risk factors. * Complete Cancer Worry Scale questionnaire. * Provide biological samples: * Blood samples (serum, plasma, DNA). * Tissue samples (residual tissue or additional biopsy if consented).
Interventions
