Description: A virtual biospecimen registry designed to support and facilitate basic science, clinical, and translational research that will advance understanding of mesothelioma pathophysiology with the goal of expediting the discovery of preventive measures, novel therapeutic interventions, and ultimately, cures for mesothelioma. The NMVB resource is designed to provide mesothelioma tissue samples with high-quality and well-characterized multimodal annotated data to researchers. The NMVB team strongly believes that progress in translational and clinical research - in cancer as well as other disease areas - depends on the ability of researchers to access high-quality tissue that is associated with meaningful annotation. MVB database version 3.0 has been released that provides researchers real-time access to demographic, epidemiologic, pathologic, genotype, and follow-up data associated with biospecimens at no cost. Researchers interested in utilizing NMVB samples for their research may submit an application. All researchers (academic or commercial, United States or foreign) may apply for NMVB tissue specimens. NMVB currently has 966 annotated cases and 1198 biospecimens including: * Paraffin Embedded Tissue * Fresh Frozen Tissue * Blood and DNA Samples The NMVB also has developed mesothelioma tissue microarrays (TMAs) with associated multimodal data annotation. Additional TMAs will be available shortly.
