Collection of Blood From Patients With Cancer, Other Tumors, or Tumor Predisposition Syndromes for Genetic Analysis

Collection of Blood From Therapeutic Trial Participants for Analysis of Genetic Differences in Drug Disposition and Pharmacokinetics of Probe Medications


Sponsor

National Cancer Institute (NCI)

Enrollment

1,100 participants

Start Date

May 21, 2012

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Background: \- Some genes may be associated with a greater chance of side effects during cancer treatment. These genes may also make certain treatments less effective. Researchers want to collect blood or cheek swab samples from people having cancer treatment to study these genes. Objectives: \- To obtain a blood or cheek swab sample to study genetic differences that may affect cancer treatment. Eligibility: \- Individuals with cancer who are being treated at the National Cancer Institute. Design: * Participants will provide a blood sample for study. * Participants who have blood-based cancer, such as leukemia, will provide a cheek swab sample. * If the blood or cheek swab sample does not have enough genetic material for analysis, an additional sample may be collected.
