Patient-Derived Models Tissue Procurement Protocol for the National Cancer Institute (NCI)
National Cancer Institute LAO
Summary
This study collects and stores tissue and blood samples from patients with cancer. Collecting and storing samples of tissue and blood from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help scientists create new and better models to learn about cancer and to test new cancer drugs.
Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To procure biologic tissues and materials to generate preclinical models of cancer. OUTLINE: This is an observational study. Tumor tissue and blood samples are procured during procedures that are required for the patients' clinical management and will be stored via xenograft (transplant to another species) models or in vitro cell culture for future analysis.
