Summary

The New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute is performing this research to accelerate cancer research ranging from disease mechanisms to personalized medicine approaches that will help to realize the promise of precision medicine for oncology.

Detailed description

Researchers at the New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute will establish a living biobank of tumor/organoids and stem cells representing individual patients diagnosed with cancer. Samples from healthy individuals (non-cancer diagnosis) or from non-disease tissue will also be collected to be used as controls in this study. Information and biospecimens may be transferred to NYSCF by external institution or NYSCF research personnel may prospectively enroll participants to have portions of samples or cells that were (or will be) collected for reasons other than this study transferred into the biobank. NYSCF's researchers hypothesize that the development of patient-specific models that can expand in vitro while capturing tumor complexity at the genotypic and phenotypic levels will enable accelerated discovery of more efficient treatments for patients and improve outcomes. This study is not a clinical trial.
