Collecting breast cancer tissue and blood samples
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
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.

This study collects blood and tumor tissue samples from patients with certain untreated cancers to help researchers develop and improve tests. You may be eligible if you have one of the listed cancer types and have not yet started treatment.
This study takes small tissue samples (core biopsies) from people with known or suspected breast cancer and stores them for research. It may help scientists better understand breast tumors, especially when the cancer has spread.
This study collects and stores tissue and fluid samples from people with a breast lump or breast cancer so researchers can study cancer biology in the future. It may help future patients by allowing better lab tests and research on why breast cancer starts, grows, and comes back.
This study is testing whether it is safe and practical to take multiple small tissue samples (biopsies) from different sites of your breast cancer over time. The goal is to learn how breast cancer changes as it grows, which could help doctors develop better treatments.
This study collects small tissue samples from women having surgery for breast cancer. The samples are stored to help researchers learn more and develop better treatments in the future.
This study builds a clinical and biological database for people newly diagnosed with certain cancers. It may help doctors better understand cancer patterns and improve future care, and it involves agreeing to extra blood samples.
