Summary

This research is being done to find out what types of gene mutations are present in people with cancer. This study is designed to help researchers and doctors understand more about cancer. With this information, doctors may have a better idea as to which cancer treatments are most appropriate for certain patients. The information will also help researchers find out the how to identify genes in cancers from biopsies and blood samples and how to use this information to help doctors and patients make treatment decisions.

  • Fulfills local institution's laboratory parameters for tumor biopsy.
  • Willingness and ability of patient to provide signed voluntary informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Any condition that could interfere with their ability to provide informed consent such as dementia or severe cognitive impairment.
  • Any contraindication to undergoing a biopsy procedure.
