Collecting and Storing Malignant, Borderline Malignant Neoplasms, and Related Samples From Young Patients With Cancer

A Children's Oncology Group Protocol for Collecting and Banking Pediatric Research Specimens Including Rare Pediatric Tumors

This study is collecting and storing malignant, borderline malignant neoplasms, and related biological samples from young patients with cancer. Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue, blood, and bone marrow from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help the study of cancer in the future.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Juvenile Myelomonocytic Leukemia; Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia; Secondary Acute Myeloid Leukemia; Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia; Prolymphocytic Leukemia; Hairy Cell Leukemia; Acute Undifferentiated Leukemia; Atypical Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, BCR-ABL1 Negative; Childhood Acute Myeloid Leukemia; Childhood Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, BCR-ABL1 Positive; Childhood Solid Neoplasm; Mast Cell Leukemia; Neoplasm of Uncertain Malignant Potential; T-Cell Large Granular Lymphocyte Leukemia
• Intervention / Treatment: Other: Cytology Specimen Collection Procedure

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

I. Collect malignant, borderline malignant neoplasms, and related biological specimens from Children's Oncology Group institutions for cases in which there is no disease-specific biologic protocol.

II. Provide a repository for long-term storage of malignant, borderline malignant neoplasms, and related biological specimens from these patients.

III. Make specimens available to qualified researchers to understand the biology of cancer in these patients.

OUTLINE:

Tumor tissue samples, blood, and bone marrow aspirates are collected and stored for future analysis.
