Duke Biobank Resource Report Resource Website |
Duke Biobank (RRID:SCR_004304) | Duke Biobank | biomaterial supply resource, tissue bank, material resource | The Duke Biobank is an institutional resource that combines well-annotated clinical data with a standardized, regulation compliant, cost efficient repository for both fluid and tissue, connected via information systems to a large scale, long-term biobank in Kannapolis, in order to foster breakthroughs in research; while ensuring the strictest adherence to ethical standards and regulations. Our goal is to work with investigators to maintain biorepository collections which are in compliance with all relevant local, regional and national and IRB biobanking standards. Capabilities * Provide expert consultation in planning and design of biobanking programs * Access, process, aliquot, store and distribute a wide array of liquid and tissue biological samples * Maintain informatics capabilities to accurately and efficiently track samples and link to clinical and laboratory assay data * Use the Duke Biobanking Guidelines document (in development) as guidance on scientific, ethical/legal, and operational to ensure quality and standardization of biospecimen collection * Minimize redundancy of infrastructure, as appropriate, across Duke Medicine. Duke University offers both on- and off-campus options for investigators seeking biobanking services. Our biobanking facilities are: * The Center for Human Genetics (CHG). Serves as the primary on-campus biobank for liquid sample storage for Duke Medicine, and as a portal between Duke and the LabCorp Biobank. * Duke Hospital South Tissue Bank. Serves as a sample portal for the Duke Biobank, and as the primary facility for tissue storage for Duke Medicine. ** DCCC Tissue & Blood Procurement ** IGSP Biospecimen Repository * LabCorp Biorepository. Located in Kannapolis, NC, this is the preferred storage center for large-scale, infrequently accessed sample collections | clinical data, fluid, tissue, blood, liquid |

Neuroendocrine Tumors Biobank Resource Report Resource Website |
Neuroendocrine Tumors Biobank (RRID:SCR_004380) | NET BioBank | biomaterial supply resource, tissue bank, material resource | Aims to carry out an integrated (epi)genomic analysis of the NET BioBank established at the Royal Free and UCL Hospitals to identify new biomarkers for translation into diagnostics and therapeutics. The Neuroendocrine Tumour (NET) Unit at the Royal Free Campus of UCL Hospitals has an international reputation for the management of neuroendocrine tumor patients. It currently receives around 10 new referrals per month and has an active patient cohort of over 800 patients. We receive referrals from across the UK as well as from abroad. It is the designated center for NETs within the North London Cancer Network. In order to improve both treatment and outcome in Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs), better understanding of their biology and the biological pathways involved is imperative (reviewed in (Modlin et al., 2008)). Currently, the use of targeted treatments is limited and management challenging due to the lack of knowledge of the molecular pathogenesis and mechanistic regulation of these tumors (Barakat et al., 2004). Due to the rarity of NETs and difficulty in obtaining fresh tissue and archival samples, very little is known about the (epi)genetic and germline mutations associated with neuroendocrine tumors ����?? which encompass a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group. To date, studies have been small and under-powered. Clinical trials have included small patient numbers and are often non-randomized phase II trials comparing a new therapy against a non-standardized first line treatment. Initially we will undertake genome-wide methylation analysis on our entire cohort of neuroendocrine tumors in order to determine the methylation profiles of differing NET types. This will improve diagnostic accuracy and potentially identify new therapeutic targets and biomarkers. These studies will be performed on high-throughput analysis platforms based on micoarrays and next-generation sequencing. In parallel, we will analyze the mRNA expression profiles of these tumors to enable integrated (epi)genomic analysis of these intriguing tumors. | tissue, tumor, neuroendocrine tumor, cancer, epigenomics |

University of Chicago Human Tissue Resource Center Biospecimen Banking (RRID:SCR_004418) | BSB | biomaterial supply resource, tissue bank, material resource | Biospecimen banking (BSB) involves collecting, processing, storing and distributing of human or animal tissues and body fluids of molecular grade. Human tissues and body fluids are banked in compliance with IRB approved protocols without compromising the diagnostic process and maintaining donor confidentiality (HIPAA compliant). Investigator-driven biobanking initiatives are of paramount importance at the University. The BSB provides investigators with the infrastructure to establish organ-specific biobanks in a centralized location. This arrangement allows for minimal duplication of costs, as well as establishing a working template for all tissue collections. The BSB has grown exponentially, and has a strong team of experienced personnel banking tissues for clinical trials, investigator-driven projects, and future biospecimen-based research. In addition, the BSB now collects and stores saliva, urine, blood, plasma, serum, and derivatives. The BSB is a complex process, requiring multiple interacting systems to ensure the scientific quality of procured tissue, and body fluids, patient confidentiality, adherence to good clinical practices, and regulated disbursement of biospecimens to approved investigators. They are also aware that policies, HIPAA guidelines, and federal and state tissue procurement regulations may change, and will be fully compliant with all new regulations. |
