Collection of Biospecimen & Clinical Information in Patients w/ Gastrointestinal Cancers
Not Recruiting
Trial ID: NCT01031056
Purpose
We have an active research program in gastrointestinal cancers including clinical trials,
epidemiologic, and translational studies. We would like to establish a biospecimen bank
linked to useful clinical information in order to learn more about diagnostic, predictive and
prognostic markers for gastrointestinal cancers.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
1. To collect and store tumor and normal tissue (previously collected paraffin embedded or
frozen specimen) and blood in patients with gastrointestinal (GI) cancers.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
1. Collect detailed clinical information via a patient questionnaire that includes
demographic, socioeconomic, lifestyle, family, past medical, medication and cancer
histories
2. Collect details about the tumor specimen extracted from patient charts.
