Banking donated blood samples for future medical research
This study collects and stores blood/blood-cell samples so researchers can use them for approved future studies. You would be tested for certain infections and health measurements to make sure the collection procedure is safe for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 89 years old when you sign consent
- Weigh at least 110 lbs and be healthy enough for the blood collection procedure
- Have pulse and blood pressure in safe ranges on the collection day
- Have an adequate vein in your arm for the blood-collection procedure (checked by the staff)
- Test negative for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV within 30 days (unless collecting specifically because of that diagnosis)

This study collects blood, tissue, or other samples from people with various conditions—including cancer, infections, autoimmune diseases, or healthy volunteers—to help researchers understand these diseases better. Your samples will be stored and used for future medical research.
This study collects blood from healthy volunteers to be used in laboratory research. Your blood helps scientists study diseases and test new treatments in the lab.
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 trial uses a special blood-removal procedure called apheresis to collect either plasma or white blood cells for laboratory research. It may help scientists understand infection or immune-related processes by providing specific blood components for study.
This study collects blood cells (apheresis) from healthy volunteers to help develop new medicines. It checks your overall health to make sure you're a safe donor.
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.
