Tissue bank for digestive conditions and cancers
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study collects tissue samples from people with digestive conditions or cancers during routine procedures like endoscopy or surgery. The samples are used to build models for research, helping researchers better understand these diseases and develop new treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with a digestive condition like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a digestive cancer, or Barrett's esophagus.
- You are scheduled for a digestive endoscopy, an ultrasound endoscopy, or surgery on your digestive tract as part of your care.
- You are willing to have extra tissue samples taken during that procedure for research purposes.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial collects blood and tumor tissue from adults with cancer to help researchers study gastrointestinal cancers. If you’re eligible, your participation mainly involves donating samples for research purposes.
This study collects and stores digestive (bowel) tissue to better understand how gut bacteria may affect diseases like ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. It may help researchers find future ways to improve care for people with these conditions.
This study collects small tissue samples (biopsies) during a routine endoscopy to create organoids—miniature versions of your intestine grown in a lab. The goal is to better understand digestive diseases and test potential treatments. You may be eligible if you're already scheduled for an endoscopy.
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.
This study collects samples (like tissue and other body fluids) from people who are getting a colonoscopy or similar camera test. It aims to find “biomarkers,” which are measurable signals that may help doctors better understand or detect bowel problems such as colorectal cancer, polyps, or inflammatory bowel disease.
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.
