Proper Citation: Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation Tumor Bank (RRID:SCR_004214)
Description: THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 18, 2022. A tumor bank that provides a large collection of cancer specimens, from breast and other cancers, annotated with clinical information. The CBCF TB enables researchers to address unanswered questions concerning the prognosis and treatment of breast cancer and other cancers. The CBCF TB website is also directed to participants interested in donating tumor tissue or blood. Biological specimens such as blood, urine, bone marrow, and ascites (fluid that sometimes collects in the abdomen) contain genetic information, just as tumor tissue does. These samples can be used in studies that may help researchers see how people with certain genetic make-ups respond to certain treatments. It can also explain why different people have different health problems. CBCF TB, formerly ARTB, was created by a merger of components of two existing Tumor-banking initiatives, the CLS Repository in Calgary and the Tumor bank of the PolyomX Program in Edmonton.
