Collection of Blood From Patients With Cancer, Other Tumors, or Tumor Predisposition Syndromes for Genetic Analysis

Background: - Some genes may be associated with a greater chance of side effects during cancer treatment. These genes may also make certain treatments less effective. Researchers want to collect blood or cheek swab samples from people having cancer treatment to study these genes. Objectives: - To obtain a blood or cheek swab sample to study genetic differences that may affect cancer treatment. Eligibility: - Individuals with cancer who are being treated at the National Cancer Institute. Design: Participants will provide a blood sample for study. Participants who have blood-based cancer, such as leukemia, will provide a cheek swab sample. If the blood or cheek swab sample does not have enough genetic material for analysis, an additional sample may be collected.

Integrated Cancer Repository for Cancer Research

The iCaRe2 is a multi-institutional resource created and maintained by the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center to collect and manage standardized, multi-dimensional, longitudinal data and biospecimens on consented adult cancer patients, high-risk individuals, and normal controls. The distinct characteristic of the iCaRe2 is its geographical coverage, with a significant percentage of small and rural hospitals and cancer centers. The iCaRe2 advances comprehensive studies of risk factors of cancer development and progression and enables the design of novel strategies for prevention, screening, early detection and personalized treatment of cancer. Centers with expertise in cancer epidemiology, genetics, biology, early detection, and patient care can collaborate by using the iCaRe2 as a platform for cohort and population studies.

Immune Responses in Prostate, Lung, Melanoma and Breast Cancer Patients Following Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT), Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) or Brachytherapy

Success of cancer immunotherapy is limited by the ability of solid tumors to evade local and systemic antitumoral immune responses. Several mechanisms of tumor immune evasion have been identified, including low intratumor expression of antigens and elevated expression of inhibitory co-regulatory molecules. An effective immunotherapy is one which would induce necrotic cell death and accompanying proinflammatory cytokine induction. Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) or Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) or brachytherapy, which is capable of delivering high, conformal radiation doses (>8 Gy) of tumor ablative radiation may be an effective means of conditioning a tumor bed to a state favorable to the initiation of robust antitumoral immune responses.

Nashville Early Diagnosis Lung Cancer Project

This screening study will address the lack of molecular strategies for the early detection of lung cancer and integrate those with epidemiological and imaging strategies. The hypothesis is that the repeated measure of biomarkers of risk obtained from the molecular analysis of biological specimens including those from bronchoscopy (bronchial brushings and biopsies) may contribute to the refinement of high-risk populations and allow an earlier clinical diagnosis. The goal of the investigators study is to provide screening for lung cancer in a high-risk population. In this prospective cohort it will be tested whether repeated measure of biomarkers of risk allows early detection of lung cancer.

Manchester Lung Health Study

The Manchester Lung Health Study (qUEST) will assess the uptake of a community-based lung cancer screening service and its impact across a deprived area of North and East Manchester, which has high rates of lung cancer. One measure will be to compare the number and stage of lung cancers detected through screening to those detected outside of screening. In addition we will investigate the potential of a blood and nose test to detect lung cancer or to help decide who would benefit from screening. We will also see if these samples can help with the interpretation of CT scans. One of the problems with lung cancer CT screening is that you detect lung nodules in which we are not sure if they are benign or cancerous. Therefore we are also looking to see if a biomarker can help us work out which are cancerous and which are benign.
