Overview
The purpose of this study is to obtain tissue samples for ongoing studies regarding transplant outcomes and complications.
Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to acquire critical tissue and biological samples that can be evaluated to elucidate underlying mechanisms of disease control, transplant related complications and overall outcomes
Interventions
- Procedure collection and storage of tissue samples for research
Tissue samples include blood draws for the donor and recipient. A bone marrow sample may be obtained from the recipient. If the recipient undergoes a tissue biopsy for clinical reasons, a small fraction may be removed for research purposes. A small fraction of the donor graft may be removed at the time of collection for research.
Primary outcome measures
- Identify and characterize proteins and genes that may contribute to the development and progression of cancer. [Time frame: blood sample is collected prior transplant, periodically during the first three months and then indefinately at follow up]
