Collection and Storage of Blood and Tissue Samples From Patients Who Are Undergoing Surgery For Lung Cancer

Study summary

This research studies collecting and storing tissue and blood samples from patients with lung cancer who are undergoing surgery. Collecting and storing samples of tissue and blood from patients with lung cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that may occur in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and identify biomarkers related to cancer.

Public criteria

Who may be able to participate

The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.

Requirements people may need to meetInclusion criteria

1. Histologic Documentation: All patients with suspected or histologically documented previously untreated lung cancer undergoing surgical resection are eligible whether or not the patient participates in a CALGB-sponsored treatment trial; patients enrolled on a CALGB trial of preoperative chemotherapy for lung cancer will be eligible if a pre-treatment frozen sample of tumor (e.g., a positive lymph node from mediastinoscopy) can be submitted to the bank; patients enrolled on CALGB 140203, intraoperative sentinel node mapping in non-small cell lung cancer, are not eligible. 2. No patients with known infectious disease, such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), tuberculosis (TB), or hepatitis B, C

Important: This is the sponsor’s public criteria, not a determination of eligibility. The study team must review your individual situation.
