Description: The Ontario Tumour Bank is a province-wide biorepository and data bank focused on collection of tumor-related human biospecimens. It provides academic and industry cancer researchers with a diverse selection of high quality tumor-related specimens and data obtained directly by dedicated tumour bank staff, who follow a stringent set of procedures and ethical guidelines. The biospecimens and clinical data are an important resource for scientists engaged in translational research who are developing better diagnostic tools and new drug therapies. Researchers depend on the Ontario Tumour Bank to provide research biospecimens of high quality, diversity, and integrity. Operating at state-of-the-art hospitals and cancer centers across Ontario, the Ontario Tumour Bank coordinates the collection, storage, analysis, annotation, and distribution of tumor and peripheral blood samples. Working in collaboration with local pathologists, medical oncologists, surgeons and other hospital personnel, specially trained staff obtain patient consent, collect tissues and assemble comprehensive clinical information about each donor and the corresponding samples.
