Studying Tumor Tissue Samples From Patients With Soft Tissue Sarcoma
LABORATORY STUDIES OF SOFT TISSUE SARCOMAS
RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer.
PURPOSE: This research study is looking at tumor tissue samples from patients with soft tissue sarcoma.
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
- To develop a pilot program for the collection, archiving, and experimental analyses of soft tissue sarcomas (STS).
- To obtain STS tumors from cancer patients undergoing tumor removal or core needle biopsies.
- To evaluate cellular and molecular factors involved in STS oncogenesis by studying samples derived from human tumor specimens.
- To develop an accompanying bioinformatics database of the demographics of STS patients from which tumor specimens are derived for experimental study.
OUTLINE: Tumor tissue samples are analyzed for gene and protein expression by cDNA microarray analysis, RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, in vitro transformation assays, RNA interference, and Western blot or immunoprecipitation.
