Scientists create breast cancer tissue library to unlock tumor secrets
NCT ID NCT02250352
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study collects small tissue samples (core biopsies) from people with known or suspected breast cancer to create a tissue repository. Researchers will use these samples to study the biology of breast cancer, including genes and proteins, to better understand how tumors grow and respond to treatments. The goal is to help develop improved therapies and tests for breast cancer. Up to 400 participants will provide samples for this research.
