The Cancer Genome Atlas Resource Report Resource Website 5000+ mentions |
The Cancer Genome Atlas (RRID:SCR_003193) | TCGA | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | Project exploring the spectrum of genomic changes involved in more than 20 types of human cancer that provides a platform for researchers to search, download, and analyze data sets generated. As a pilot project it confirmed that an atlas of changes could be created for specific cancer types. It also showed that a national network of research and technology teams working on distinct but related projects could pool the results of their efforts, create an economy of scale and develop an infrastructure for making the data publicly accessible. Its success committed resources to collect and characterize more than 20 additional tumor types. Components of the TCGA Research Network: * Biospecimen Core Resource (BCR); Tissue samples are carefully cataloged, processed, checked for quality and stored, complete with important medical information about the patient. * Genome Characterization Centers (GCCs); Several technologies will be used to analyze genomic changes involved in cancer. The genomic changes that are identified will be further studied by the Genome Sequencing Centers. * Genome Sequencing Centers (GSCs); High-throughput Genome Sequencing Centers will identify the changes in DNA sequences that are associated with specific types of cancer. * Proteome Characterization Centers (PCCs); The centers, a component of NCI's Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium, will ascertain and analyze the total proteomic content of a subset of TCGA samples. * Data Coordinating Center (DCC); The information that is generated by TCGA will be centrally managed at the DCC and entered into the TCGA Data Portal and Cancer Genomics Hub as it becomes available. Centralization of data facilitates data transfer between the network and the research community, and makes data analysis more efficient. The DCC manages the TCGA Data Portal. * Cancer Genomics Hub (CGHub); Lower level sequence data will be deposited into a secure repository. This database stores cancer genome sequences and alignments. * Genome Data Analysis Centers (GDACs) - Immense amounts of data from array and second-generation sequencing technologies must be integrated across thousands of samples. These centers will provide novel informatics tools to the entire research community to facilitate broader use of TCGA data. TCGA is actively developing a network of collaborators who are able to provide samples that are collected retrospectively (tissues that had already been collected and stored) or prospectively (tissues that will be collected in the future). | genome, genome sequencing, breast, central nervous system, endocrine, gastrointestinal, gynecologic, head, neck, hematologic, skin, soft tissue, thoracic, urologic, clinical, genomic characterization, analysis, tumor genome, demographic, gene expression, copy number alteration, epigenetic, dna sequence, exome, snp, methylation, mrna, mirna, FASEB list |

Cancer Control using Population-based Registries and Biobanks (RRID:SCR_004902) | CCPRB | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | CCPRB (Cancer Control using Population-based Registries and Biobanks) is a Network of Excellence project within the sixth framework programme of the European Union. It is aiming at improved control of cancer by facilitating research linking biobanks and cancer registries. The project involves a systematic quality assurance and continuous development of standards and norms for human sample biobanks in Europe, as well as development of improved integrity-protection standards in the handling of sensitive information in connection with biobank-based research. The samples in the biobanks will be used in large-scale cancer research searching for genetic and infectious causes to cancer, in particular in the areas of breast and colorectal cancer and childhood leukemia. Project objectives: * Provide the study base for uniquely large population-based prospective studies on cancer * Define and implement a generally applicable European Quality Standard for Biobanking that will include improved data and specimen standardization, acquisition and analysis, reliable and standardized statistical analysis as well as improved management and co-ordination of European biobanks. * Define and promote the implementation of integrity-proof methods for biobank-based research involving well defined and secure third party code-keeping systems. * Enable large-scale, population-based research on: ** evaluation of cancer treatment and role of molecular markers in treatment selection ** use over-generation registry linkages applied to large biobank cohorts to identify and evaluate genetic predisposition associated with increased cancer risk as well as interactions with common environmental exposures. ** use over-generation registry linkages applied to large biobank cohorts to explore and evaluate intrauterine exposures associated with increased cancer risk ** exploit the power of large population cohorts for design of optimal strategies for cancer prevention and its evaluation. * Establish a Europe-wide network for spreading the awareness of i) the data, samples and knowledge generated European biobank-based research ii) possibilities for future biobank-based research and iii) the best practice quality standards for biobank-based research. | genetic, infectious disease, young human, child, registry, biobank |

UCL Biobank Resource Report Resource Website |
UCL Biobank (RRID:SCR_000517) | UCL Biobank | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | Two University College London (UCL) biobanks, one based at the Royal Free Hospital (RFH) Campus and the other based at Bloomsbury supporting Pathology and the Cancer Institute, will act as physical repositories for collections of biological samples and data from patients consented at UCLH, Partners Hospitals and external sources. This will incorporate collections of existing stored samples and new collections. UCL-RFH BioBank, the physical repository at the Royal Free, presents a unique opportunity to advance medical research through making access to research tissue easier, faster and much more efficient. The BioBank is both a physical repository, with capacity for up to 1 million cryogenically stored samples and a virtual repository for all tissue, cell, plasma, serum, DNA and RNA samples stored throughout UCLP. In particular, samples considered "relevant material", such as tissues and cells, that are licensed by the Human Tissue Authority, can be stored long term. Existing holdings of tissues and cells where appropriate can be transferred to the Physical BioBank at the Royal Free. UCL - Royal Free BioBank provides a flexible approach to banking, allowing the Depositor to pick and choose services that are tailored to fit their requirements. Collaborations arising from publicizing of the existence of the holdings are entirely at the discretion of the depositor, as the facility ensures that access to the deposits remains at the decision of the Depositor/User. UCL Biobank for studying Health and Disease (based at Pathology-Rockefeller building and the UCL-Cancer Institute will support projects principally involved in the study of human disease. The aim is to support primarily, research in the Pathology Department, UCLH and the UCL-Cancer Institute but it will also support other UCLH partners. The biobank will store normal and pathological specimens, surplus to diagnostic requirements, from relevant tissues and bodily fluids. Stored tissues will include; snap-frozen or cryopreserved tissue, formalin-fixed tissue, paraffin-embedded tissues, and slides prepared for histological examination. Tissues will include resection specimens obtained surgically or by needle core biopsy. Bodily fluids will include; whole blood, serum, plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, milk, saliva and buccal smears and cytological specimens such as sputum and cervical smears. Fine needle aspirates obtained from tissues and bodily cavities (e.g. pleura and peritoneum) will also be collected. Where appropriate the biobank will also store separated cells, protein, DNA and RNA isolated from collected tissues and bodily fluids described above. Some of the tissue and aspirated samples will be stored in the diagnostic archive. | tissue, cell, plasma, serum, dna, rna, blood, serum, plasma, urine, cerebral spinal fluid, milk, saliva, buccal smear, sputum, cervical smear, pleura, peritoneum, protein, body fluid, cryopreserved, frozen, snap-frozen, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded, slide, cancer, disease, normal |
