Tissue Collection for Gastro-esophageal Cancer Primary Cell Line Establishment
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 14 May 2025 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This proposed collection of primary tumor cells lines will benefit esophageal cancer research within the University Health Network. This collection of gastro-esophageal tumor samples will be used to grow primary tumor cell lines, which will provide researchers with ready samples of various gastro-esophageal cancers. This will help to address the issue of access to these cell lines due to the limited number of patients with gastro-esophageal tumors, and high rates of contamination.
