Sharing blood and tissue samples for blood cancer research
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy, Infections clinical trials.
This trial collects tissue, blood, and other body fluid samples from people with blood-related cancers. The goal is to help researchers study these diseases by building a source of samples for future testing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a blood or lymph node cancer diagnosis (a hematologic/lymphoid cancer)
- This may include leukemia, lymphoma, myelodysplastic syndromes, or similar conditions
- You are currently being seen at UNC Hospitals’ hematology/oncology clinics or transplant clinic, or you are in the hospital
- You can provide the kinds of samples the study asks for (such as blood and other fluids)

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This study asks healthy adults to provide blood, bone marrow (if needed), skin, saliva, and stool samples. Scientists use these samples to compare patterns related to myeloid (bone-marrow) blood cancers, which may help future research and tests.
This study collects blood cells using a special blood-draw procedure called leukapheresis (for some participants) and other samples. It aims to better understand cancer and immune-related cells, which may help researchers design or improve future treatments.
This study collects and stores blood/tissue samples (called biospecimens) to support immunotherapy research at the cancer center. If you may qualify, your samples help researchers test new immune-based cancer treatments.
This trial studies how different blood cancers and early (pre-cancer) blood conditions work, using tumor/blood tissue samples. It may help researchers learn more about disease biology for future treatments, with little to no extra risk if samples come from routine care.
This trial is a tissue and blood bank that collects samples for future research. You may be asked to give blood and/or tissue again later, but it is meant to be done without interfering with your care.
This study collects tissue samples from patients with cancer or blood disorders, and from their matching family members who might donate stem cells for transplant. The samples help researchers understand these diseases and develop better treatments.
