Description:
Fresh blood will be processed at receipt into blood products (e.g., plasma) or frozen whole. Plasma aliquots and frozen whole blood will be stored in a -80°C or -20°C freezer until distribution. Frozen tissue will be received, weighed, and banked in a liquid nitrogen vapor phase freezer. At the end of the study, selected blood and tissue samples may be pulled for nucleic acid extraction. Prior to extracting nucleic acid from tissue, a pathology quality control review will determine the %tumor and %necrotic tumor, as well as confirm concordance with the institutional diagnosis.
