About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

This study collects, stores and analyzes blood specimens and information from people with prostate cancer. This may help researchers understand whether certain white blood cells involved in immunity differs between prostate cancer patients from various racial backgrounds.

The group in the trial

  • Observational

    Patients undergo collection of blood samples and have their medical records reviewed on study. Patients may undergo collection of residual tissue samples, if available, on study.

    Treatment: Non-Interventional Study
