• Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease present for >= 3 years before enrollment and felt to be at low risk for recurrence by treating physician
• Adequately treated non-melanomatous skin cancer or lentigo maligna without evidence of disease
• Adequately treated cervical carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease
• Prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia without evidence of prostate cancer
