Goals
Support investigator-initiated cancer clinical trials
We support investigator-initiated cancer clinical trials with a focus on biomarker correlate studies: identify, design, and manage relevant laboratory correlates; write laboratory manels for LOIs and protocols; develop budgets
We help with clinical sample processing, storage, shipping, and coordinating for downstream assays and dana analysis including mass flow cytometry (CyTOF), single cell or bulk RNAseq, TCRseq, etc.
We collect, log, and track and shipping samples; coordinate and distribute samples to collaborating research laboratories/core facilities.
We provide pilot funding for development and validation of novel biomarker analyses, enable reimbursements for labs engaged in assay processing and analyses
