THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 7,2024. Software for somatic single nucleotide variant (SNV) and small indel detection from sequencing data of matched tumor-normal samples. The method employs a novel Bayesian approach which represents continuous allele frequencies for both tumor and normal samples, whilst leveraging the expected genotype structure of the normal. This is achieved by representing the normal sample as a mixture of germline variation with noise, and representing the tumor sample as a mixture of the normal sample with somatic variation. A natural consequence of the model structure is that sensitivity can be maintained at high tumor impurity without requiring purity estimates. The method has superior accuracy and sensitivity on impure samples compared to approaches based on either diploid genotype likelihoods or general allele-frequency tests.

Division of NCI that takes prospective cancer detection and treatment leads, facilitates their paths to clinical application, and expedites the initial and subsequent large-scale testing of new agents, biomarkers, imaging tests, and other therapeutic interventions (radiation, surgery, immunotherapy) in patients. DCTD, like all of NCI, supports many programs that could not be done without government funding - investigators supported by the division engage in scientifically sound, high-risk research that may yield great benefits for patients with cancer, but are too difficult or risky for industry or academia to pursue. This includes a particular emphasis on the development of distinct molecular signatures for cancer, refined molecular assays, and state-of-the-art imaging techniques that will guide oncologic therapy in the future. The division has eight major programs that work together to bring unique molecules, diagnostic tests, and therapeutic interventions from the laboratory bench to the patient bedside: * Cancer Diagnosis Program * Cancer Imaging Program * Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program * Developmental Therapeutics Program * Radiation Research Program * Translational Research Program * Biometrics Research Branch * Office of Cancer Complementary and Alternative Medicine

The Central England Haemato-Oncology Research Biobank stores excess material from oncology samples referred for diagnostic testing and disease monitoring at the West Midlands Regional Genetics Laboratory (WMRGL). The bank is housed within the WMRGL. Types of material stored include viable cells, fixed cell suspensions, DNA, RNA / cDNA, and plasma. The material is made available to all cancer research groups both locally and nationally. Excess sample (mainly from blood and bone marrow) is stored from diagnostic patient material and from samples received throughout their disease course. The WMRGL serves a population of about 5.5 million and is the largest UK NHS genetic Lab. Due to the large patient population CEHRB is able to collate sufficient research material from all classifications of neoplastic haematological disorders including those that are rare.

The OSU Comprehensive Cancer Center Leukemia Tissue Bank Shared Resource (LTBSR) facilitates the successful translation of basic leukemia research to the clinical setting via an extensive repository of tissue samples and accompanying pathologic, cytogenetic and clinical data for ready correlation of clinical and biological results. The LTBSR, which is an NCI-sponsored biorepository, has more than 40,000 vials of cryopreserved viable cells and 13,000 vials of matched frozen plasma and/or serum samples from more than 4,000 patients treated for leukemia and other malignancies. Committed to furthering translational research efforts for OSUCCC - James members and the cancer research community, the LTBSR provides investigators with training and technical support as well as procurement, processing, storage, retrieval and distribution of clinical research materials. In many cases, the LTBSR serves as the central processing lab for multi-site trials in which the principal investigator is an OSUCCC - James member. The LTBSR's goals are to: * Provide a central collection, processing and a state-of-the-art repository for samples collected from leukemia patients treated on OSUCCC - James protocols, and * Provide materials to investigators involved in collaborative studies with OSU, who examine relevant cellular and molecular properties of leukemia and correlate these properties with clinical or population-based outcomes.

The South Carolina Biorepository System (SCBS), directed by Dr. Phil Buckhaults, School of Medicine, is a statewide tissue bank working with health care facilities across South Carolina to collect tumor and matched normal tissue samples from patients with cancer, and providing these samples to researchers statewide. All specimens are de-identified to protect patient privacy, but are annotated with essential, detailed clinical data. Currently, the SCBS inventory includes specimens from the leading types of cancers in South Carolina: breast, colorectal, lung, and prostate, as well as many other cancer sites. The ultimate goal is to improve the lives of cancer patients and their families.
