Genetic Collection Protocol
Arbor Research Collaborative for Health
Summary
This study involves the one-time collection of whole blood or saliva samples for the extraction and storage of DNA for use in ongoing and future ChiLDReN studies.
Description
The purpose of this study is to establish a mechanism to collect a genetic biosample from the participants previously enrolled into clinical research under ChiLDReN-supported protocols (PROBE and BASIC). The samples will be linked to the data previously collected on the participant. Samples will be stored in the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) specimen repository and will be used in ongoing and future Network and Ancillary Studies of ChiLDReN to further address the pathophysiology and outcomes of these liver diseases.
