THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. A pilot effort that has developed a centralized, web-based biospecimen locator that presents biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and biospecimen banks, which are available for acquisition and use by researchers. Researchers may use this site to browse, search and request biospecimens to use in qualified studies. The development of the ABL was guided by the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium (ABC), a consortium of hospitals and medical centers in the Phoenix area, and is now being piloted by this Consortium under the direction of ABRC. You may browse by type (cells, fluid, molecular, tissue) or disease. Common data elements decided by the ABC Standards Committee, based on data elements on the National Cancer Institute''s (NCI''s) Common Biorepository Model (CBM), are displayed. These describe the minimum set of data elements that the NCI determined were most important for a researcher to see about a biospecimen. The ABL currently does not display information on whether or not clinical data is available to accompany the biospecimens. However, a requester has the ability to solicit clinical data in the request. Once a request is approved, the biospecimen provider will contact the requester to discuss the request (and the requester''s questions) before finalizing the invoice and shipment. The ABL is available to the public to browse. In order to request biospecimens from the ABL, the researcher will be required to submit the requested required information. Upon submission of the information, shipment of the requested biospecimen(s) will be dependent on the scientific and institutional review approval. Account required. Registration is open to everyone., documented on August 17, 2021.Biospecimens and support services to advance translational research including a wide range of specimen types, including matched sets of normal and diseased tissue, Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE), blood, and serum, focusing primarily on cancer.

The Virtual Tumour Bank of the Canceropole Grand Sud-Ouest''s mission is to federate the cancer research of four French regions: Aquitaine, Languedoc-Roussillon, Limousin and Midi-Pyrenees. This site allows access to an inventory of the specimens stored in the tumor banks of the Greater South-West region, within the laboratories of Pathology of the University Hospital Centers and Cancer Centers of Bordeaux, Limoges, Montpellier, Nimes and Toulouse. You may search by disease or multiple criteria. These specimens are removed from patients primarily to confirm and accurately characterize their cancer diagnosis, and are therefore stored by the tumor bank for diagnostic and/or therapeutic purposes. These samples can be re-qualified for scientific research pending that a number of conditions are met, including the absence of refusal from the person (in compliance with French regulations). So far, the tumor bank is a major tool for cancer treatment and research. This inventory is a further evidence of the coordination effort between the eight concerned tumor banks that have been mobilized at the service of patients and research within the framework of the Canceropole Grand Sud-Ouest programs. These biological resources are made available to research groups that conduct basic or translational programs in the field of oncology. They will not be made available for projects in fields other than oncology.

http://www.bccrc.ca/dept/ttr

A provincial biobank resource to support translational cancer research at the BC Cancer Agency, across Canada and internationally. This biobank collects biospecimens (tissues and blood), and clinical information and processes these to create anonymous cases that can be studied by cancer researchers to understand how cancer develops, how it grows, how it spreads, and how it responds to treatment. These tissues and data are obtained from patients who undergo surgery to treat a tumor and who have generously provided their consent for the TTR to collect tissues that are unused after diagnosis has been completed. The TTR is a provincial program that currently comprises a core biobank at the Vancouver Island Center, Victoria, that offers participation in the program to patients in Victoria and Nanaimo. The TTR works with other banks and expert translational research groups in BC, to create expanded capacity for collection and opportunities for research access to tissue resources. The TTR operates under the management and oversight of the director, a scientific advisory board, and the UBC BCCA Research Ethics Board. The TTR operates within organizational policies and a commitment to protection of donor privacy that is embodied in all standard operating procedures and aspects of the repository. The TTR is also a founding member and contributor to the development of provincial (BC BioLibrary) and national (CTRNet) initiatives to promote biobanking.

The NSABP (National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project) Tissue Bank is the central repository of tissue samples (stained and unstained slides, tissue blocks, and frozen tissue specimens) collected from clinical trials conducted by the NSABP. The main scientific aim of the NSABP Division of Pathology is to develop clinical context-specific prognostic markers and predictive markers that predict response to or benefit from specific therapeutic modality. To achieve this aim, the laboratory collects the tumor and adjacent normal tissues from cancer patients enrolled into the NSABP trials through its membership institutions, and maintain these valuable materials with clinical follow-up information and distribute them to qualified approved investigators. Currently, specimens from more than 90,000 cases of breast and colon cancer are stored and maintained at the bank. Paraffin embedded tumor specimens are available from NSABP trials. We currently do not bank frozen tissues. All blocks are from patients enrolled in prospective NSABP treatment protocols and complete clinical follow up information as well as demographic information is available. Depending on the project, unstained tissue sections of 4-micrometer thickness, tissue microarrays, or stained slides are provided to the investigators in a blinded study format. Any investigators with novel projects that conform to the research goals of NSABP may apply for the tissue. Please refer to the NSABP Tissue Bank Policy to determine if your project conforms to these goals. Priority is given to NSABP membership institutions who regularly submit tissue blocks.
