Ohio State Biorepository Resource Report Resource Website |
Ohio State Biorepository (RRID:SCR_004714) | HTRN Biospecimen Bank | material resource, tissue bank, biomaterial supply resource | The HTRN biospecimen bank is comprised of samples for the Ohio State University Cancer and Leukemia Group B Pathology Coordinating Office (CALGB-PCO) and the Ohio State University Midwestern Division of the Cooperative Human Tissue Network (CHTN). The CALGB-PCO banks biospecimens donated by patients enrolled in clinical trials. Samples can include tumor and normal tissue, plasma, serum, whole blood and white blood cells and urine. All of these samples are used later in correlative studies. The Midwestern Division of the CHTN stores a temporary biospecimen bank of tumor and normal tissue, tissue slides and paraffin embedded tissue blocks for research investigators throughout the country and Canada who are trying to find a cure for cancer. As part of the HTRN biospecimen bank, a Rees Scientific equipment monitoring system helps to secure the integrity and quality of samples stored in the biorepository. Scientific research within the HTRN is currently underway to determine the best methods in tissue storage for long term use. The NCI First-Generation Guidelines for NCI-Supported Biorepositories and the NCI Best Practices for Biospecimen Resources are continuously reviewed and adapted by the HTRN. | tumor tissue, normal tissue, plasma, serum, whole blood, white blood cell, urine, blood, tissue, tissue slide, paraffin embedded tissue block, slide, paraffin, cancer, leukemia, research |

Case Comprehensive Cancer Center Biorepository and Tissue Processing Core Facility (RRID:SCR_004382) | BTPC | material resource, tissue bank, biomaterial supply resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 11, 2023. The Case Comprehensive Cancer Center''s Biorepository and Tissue Processing Core Facility (BTPC) serves two primary functions: 1. To build an inventory of remnant human tissues, blood and other body fluids (collectively termed biospecimens) targeted towards cancer and other medical research, for later assignment to investigators; and 2. To provide long term, controlled storage of biospecimens for specific researchers. These samples are for research purposes only and may not be used for clinical diagnosis or implantation into humans. Clinical information relating to the samples and donors are collected and maintained in a secure database. Samples and data are de-identified or de-linked before release to the researcher unless he/she has specific IRB approval to gain access to this information. Remnant biospecimens are prospectively collected from surgical procedures, autopsies and clinical laboratories for the BTPC by the Human Tissue Procurement Facility (HTPF), which operates under UH-IRB Protocol 01-02-45. Blood and bone marrow specimens are collected for the BTPC by the Hematopoietic Stem Cell Core Facility (HSCC), which operates under UH-IRB Protocol 09-90-195. The Division of Surgical Pathology at University Hospitals Case Medical Center (UHCMC) has clinical archives of paraffin blocks that can be made available through the BTPC for retrospective research studies under the approval of the Vice Chair for Clinical Affairs at UHCMC. Surgical Pathologists associated with the BTPC are responsible for determining which blocks can be made available and how much material can be removed from the blocks. Types of Tissue Available * Malignant, benign, diseased, normal and normal human tissues * Normal adjacent tissues available paired with tumor specimens in many cases * Tissues are collected from over 50 anatomic sites * Frozen specimens, OCT-embedded and paraffin-embedded tissues * Large array of paraffin-embedded specimens from clinical archives of paraffin blocks and QC research blocks maintained by the HTPF * Peripheral blood and bone marrow samples from initial visits and follow-up procedures are processed to obtain serum and cell fractions for storage * No samples are collected from individuals with known infectious illnesses * Fetal biospecimens are not collected due to state and local statutes | tissue, blood, body fluid, bone marrow, stem cell, serum, cell fraction, paraffin block, clinical data, malignant tissue, benign tissue, diseased tissue, normal tissue, cancer, control, research, frozen, oct-embedded, paraffin-embedded, tumor, paraffin, oct |

The collection is meant for medical research purposes only. This concerns a typical clinical based pathology biobank. Tissue samples left over from surgical resection specimen are stored under liquid nitrogen and can be requested by Erasmus MC scientists for medical scientific experiments. An application has been developed to enable scientists to search the collection on-line and request tissue samples over the Erasmus MC Intranet. Every request shall be judged according to procedures determined by the Erasmus MC Tissue Bank. A growing need is anticipated for large collections of well-diagnosed fresh frozen tumor tissue and, if available, corresponding pre-malignant and normal tissue samples. Scientific research on patient residual material has to comply with strict rules and regulations. Equipment The Erasmus MC Tissue bank manages the PALM microdissection laser for the center for Biomics, which is available through the center for Biomics ONLY after having followed an introduction course. Additionally, a complete TMA (Tissue Micro Array) platform, fully funded by the Josephine Nefkens Stichting, consisting of a Beecher Automated Tissue Arrayer ATA 27 and a Virtual Microscope or Nanozoomer from Hamamatsu and Medical Solutions with TMA analyses software strongly supports translational research on tissue samples. Complete histologic Images from the Virtual Microscope are available within the Erasmus MC Intranet or available on the Internet either by overview or a direct example. | clinical, tumor tissue, tissue, pre-malignant tissue, normal tissue, liquid nitrogen, fresh frozen, frozen, tumor | is listed by: One Mind Biospecimen Bank Listing | Tumor | European Union | Private: Tissue samples left over from surgical resection specimen are stored under liquid nitrogen and can be requested by Erasmus MC scientists for medical scientific experiments. | nlx_91504 | http://www.erasmusmc.nl/pathologie/clinicalpathology/tissuebank/161390/ | SCR_004945 | Erasmus Medical Center Tissue Bank, Erasmus MC Virtual Tissue Bank | 2026-02-15 09:18:51 | 0 | ||||

NCI Breast and Colon Cancer Family Registries Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
NCI Breast and Colon Cancer Family Registries (RRID:SCR_006664) | Breast and Colon CFR | material resource, tissue bank, biomaterial supply resource | 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. | breast, colon, breast cancer, colon cancer, biospecimen, tumor block, epstein-barr virus-transformed cell line, cell line, cancer, tumor |
