Detailed Description:
OBJECTIVES:
- To create a database that includes environmental, demographic, phenotypic, clinical, pathologic, genetic, and prognostic factors in large cohorts of women with different stages of breast cancer.
- To create a tissue repository that contains DNA, RNA, or protein from tumor tissue or normal tissue, peripheral blood lymphocytes, and plasma that are linked to frozen and/or paraffin-embedded pathology specimens.
OUTLINE: Patients undergo tumor tissue and normal tissue sample collection at the time of medically indicated surgery or biopsy. Archival tissue may also be collected. Patients and normal volunteers also undergo blood and urine sample collection. A repository of tissue, blood, and urine samples will be established to facilitate current and future research studies to learn about the biologic features of breast cancer development and progression. Research studies may include molecular pathology studies and gene and protein expression studies.
Patients' medical records are reviewed over approximately 5 years to determine if the test results are associated with health status. Patients do not receive the results of individual testing.
Eligibility| Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older |
| Genders Eligible for Study: | Female |
| Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | Yes |
| Sampling Method: | Non-Probability Sample |
Patients with and without breast cancer.
- Any subject > 18 years of age with a breast lesion which is suspected to be cancer or a known breast cancer lesion (primary or metastatic) who agrees to donate tissue/body fluids. Collection of samples can occur:
- At the time of breast biopsy or surgery for benign disease
- At the time of breast biopsy or surgery for suspected breast cancer
- At the time of biopsy or surgery for histologically proven breast cancer at any stage of disease.
- From archival materials
- In a normal volunteer who wishes to donate blood and/or urine to allow for a control population against whom the cancer patient can be compared
- Subjects have to sign informed consent for study of tumor specimens as part of a research project.
- Patients have to give permission for their tumor specimens to be obtained from outside institutions for molecular analyses.
- All subjects participating in this protocol have to be willing to be followed for recurrence, relapse and death from disease.
