Sponsored by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center · Observational
The goal of this study is to develop a biospecimen collection protocol for unused biospecimens from pulmonary procedures in order to facilitate research across many different areas of pulmonary medicine and mitigate the pulmonary morbidity experienced by patients with cancer.
Primary objectives:
To assemble a tissue/blood bank biorepository for laboratory translational research by collecting extra samples of bronchoalveolar lavage, pleural fluid, blood or other residual tissue obtained during normally scheduled clinical procedures for the evaluation of pulmonary toxicity
To collect basic data on patient data and suspected pulmonary toxicity to cross-reference eligible biospecimens
