Multi-institutional tumor banking: lessons learned from a pancreatic cancer biospecimen repository

Michael J Demeure et al. Pancreas. 2010 Oct.

Abstract

Clinically annotated pancreatic cancer samples are needed for progress to be made toward developing more effective treatments for this deadly cancer. As part of a National Cancer Institute-funded program project, we established a biospecimen core to support the research efforts. This article summarizes the key hurdles encountered and solutions we found in the process of developing a successful multi-institution biospecimen repository.
