Fox Chase has developed a facility dedicated to the collection and distribution of human subject biosamples and supporting personal and family cancer history data. In response to announcement (CA-00-025; P30 CA06927S2), the Fox Chase Cancer Center''s Biosample Repository (BR) and Tumor Bank Facility (TBF) is making blood specimens (i.e., whole blood, plasma, platelet-rich plasma, platelet homogenates, red blood cells, leukocytes, lymphoblastoid cell lines, and DNA isolated from leukocytes) and tumor tissues (i.e., multi-tissue microarrays and tumor DNAs) collected by our facilities available for research. Request for blood and tissue will be reviewed by a panel of scientists and ranked. Priority will be given to those investigators with current NIGH/NCI funding, but will be made available as recommended by the internal and external advisory committees. * Blood Inventory: Plasma, Serum, Whole Blood, Lymphocytes, DNA * Tissue Inventory: Tumor and Normal Adjacent Tissue, Fresh-Frozen, Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Tissue, OCT Embedded Tissue, Ethanol-fixed Tissue

The Loma Linda University Cancer Center Biospecimen Laboratory provides specimens for researchers as they search for the causes of cancer, and look for new means of prevention and treatment. The specimens include tissues, blood products (blood cell, plasma and serum) and bone marrow cells. Researchers interested in gaining access to the Biospecimen Laboratory''s samples should email Dr. Saied Mirshahidi, requesting access. The number and types of samples we have available for research can be viewed, http://www.llu.edu/catissuesummary/. Use the Biospecimen Laboratory Tissue Request Form to request specimens for research studies.

http://epi.grants.cancer.gov/CFR/

The Breast Cancer Family Registry (Breast CFR) and the Colon Cancer Family Registry (Colon CFR) were established by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) as a unique resource for investigators to use in conducting studies on the genetics and molecular epidemiology of breast and colon cancer. Known collectively as the CFRs, they share a central goal: the translation of research to the clinical and prevention settings for the benefit of Registry participants and the general public. The CFRs are particularly interested in: * Identifying and characterizing cancer susceptibility genes; * Defining gene-gene and gene-environment interactions in cancer etiology; and * Exploring the translational, preventive, and behavioral implications of research findings. The CFRs do not provide funding for studies; however, researchers can apply to access CFR data and biospecimens contributed by thousands of families from across the spectrum of risk for these cancers and from population-based or relative controls. Special features of the CFRs include: * Population-based and clinic-based ascertainment; * Systematic collection of validated family history; * Epidemiologic risk factor , clinical, and followup data; * Biospecimens (including tumor blocks and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed cell lines); * Ongoing molecular characterization of the participating families; and * A combined informatics center.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 7th, 2023. An online, searchable record of biospecimen attributes and storage location for the following three biobanks at Stanford: * The Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) program * The Hematology biospecimen bank is a research sample repository focusing on blood, plasma and bone marrow, primarily from leukemia patients. * Cancer Center Pathology Core: The Stanford Comprehensive Cancer Center Tissue Bank stores research samples of both solid tumor and blood from cancer patients, with an emphasis on prostate. As of November 2009, the system contains data on 50,000 biospecimens stored in multiple banks at Stanford. An anonymous Biospecimen Locator allows Stanford researchers to search the STRIDE Virtual Biospecimen Bank for suitable samples without having to know, or expose, any protected patient-specific information. Having determined that suitable specimens exist in one of the constituent biospecimens banks, the researcher can generate a Web-based request form to obtain additional information from the appropriate bank operator(s). Access to specimens is restricted to Stanford Faculty and Staff or affiliates., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.
