Building lab models for sarcoma and cancer spread
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study aims to create new laboratory models to better understand sarcomas and cancers that have spread to the bone or lungs. By using donated tumor tissue and blood, researchers hope to learn how these cancers grow and develop, which could lead to better treatments in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You or your loved one must have a confirmed diagnosis of sarcoma (a cancer of the bones or soft tissues) or cancer that has spread to the bones or lungs.
- You or your loved one must be between 0 and 85 years old.
- There must be enough tumor tissue and/or blood samples available from a previous procedure to be used in the study.
- You or your loved one must have signed consent forms allowing your tissue and blood to be stored in a biobank and used for this research.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at the genetic (DNA) features of tumors in children, teens, and young adults with osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, or synovial sarcoma. It may help researchers better understand these cancers by analyzing a fresh tumor sample and a blood sample.
This trial takes a small sample of your tumor to grow a model in the lab. This model helps doctors test which treatments might work best for you.
This study uses tumor samples from soft tissue sarcoma to create lab models that researchers can test. It may help scientists better understand sarcoma and find more personalized treatment ideas for people like you.
This study takes small samples of your breast tumor tissue after (or during) treatment and grows them in lab animals to better study breast cancer. It may help researchers test future ideas for treating aggressive breast cancer types like triple-negative or Luminal B.
This study collects information and blood samples from adults with sarcoma who had surgery and possibly radiation. The goal is to build a large dataset that helps researchers understand sarcoma better and improve future care.
This study looks at blood and tumor tissue to find signs (markers) that can help diagnose or better understand metastatic cancer. You may be able to join if you’re getting surgery or a biopsy to remove a tumor and there’s a safe way to collect samples.
