National Cancer Institute "Cancer Moonshot Biobank" is a study that collects tissue and blood samples from cancer patients over time. This helps researchers understand how cancer changes with treatment. The goal is to gather samples and data from a variety of patients to improve cancer research and treatments.
Primary Objective: The study aims to collect samples to help with research on drug resistance and cancer treatments. Researchers want to look at how well patients respond to standard care treatments by collecting samples at different stages of treatment.
Secondary Objectives: Researchers will also provide valuable information to patients and doctors by analyzing tumor samples. They plan to develop patient-derived models from some participants to help future research. The study encourages participation from minority groups and increases research abilities in community hospitals.
- The study lasts for at least 5 years, with samples collected before, during, and after treatment.
- Participants will need to visit for sample collections multiple times.
- No compensation is mentioned. Risks include biopsy procedures, which must be low risk.
Eligibility includes having certain types of cancer, being 13 years or older, and not being on non-standard treatments.
