New biobank aims to unlock genetic secrets of rare bone cancer
NCT ID NCT03225872
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study created a registry and biobank for people with osteosarcoma, a rare bone cancer, and their family members. Researchers collected genetic samples from 362 participants to compare genes of those with and without the disease. The goal is to better understand what causes osteosarcoma, not to test a new treatment.
