Tissue sample collection during cancer surgery or biopsy
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study is collecting tissue samples from people with certain cancers while they have surgery or a biopsy. It may help researchers learn more about these cancers and improve future diagnosis and treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have one of these cancers: stomach, esophagus, pancreas, liver, bile (gallbladder/bile ducts), GIST, peritoneal mesothelioma, neuroendocrine tumor, anal cancer, or colorectal cancer.
- Your doctor has recommended a surgery or diagnostic biopsy as part of your care.
- Your tissue would be taken during that surgery or biopsy for research purposes.
- You must be able to proceed with the planned procedure your care team already recommended.

This trial collects and studies tumor and lymph node samples from people with gastric cancer who have had chemotherapy and surgery. The goal is to understand how cancer responds to treatment and to improve future care.
This trial collects tissue (samples) from people who are already scheduled for biopsy or surgery for certain solid cancers. It aims to improve future testing and research while checking that taking the sample is safe and doesn’t add extra risk.
This study collects small tissue samples from people who already need an endoscopy (EGD) and/or surgery for esophagus or stomach-related problems. The goal is to help researchers learn more about gastroesophageal cancers and related conditions.
This trial looks at collecting (taking) medical samples from people who need surgery for colorectal cancer, stomach (gastric) cancer, or a non-cancer condition. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and improve how treatment is planned.
This study compares two ways of getting stomach cancer tissue: a camera-guided biopsy and a tissue sample taken during planned stomach surgery. The goal is to see which sample better supports molecular (gene-based) testing to guide diagnosis.
This study collects tissue and/or blood samples from people with breast cancer to help future research. It may be useful if you’re already having surgery or another procedure as part of your treatment plan.
