Brief Summary

Background: People who join a study in the Developmental Therapeutics Clinic (DTC) have tests. These include blood draws and biopsies. Researchers collect data from these samples. Some people take part in more than one study at the DTC. At this time, data are connected only with one single study. Researchers want to access people s medical records. This will allow them to link the research data from all their studies they have or will take part in. Researchers also want to collect medical data about their diagnosis and treatment history. This will allow them to see how their cancer reacted to different drugs over time. Objective: To enter people into a master protocol to connect research sample and treatment data across DTC studies. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who are being evaluated or treated for cancer in the DTC Design: Participants will allow researchers to look at all the data from their research samples. This includes those from their current, past, and any future NIH studies. Participants will allow researchers to access some of their medical data. This includes age, diagnosis, treatment history, and response to treatment. Participants will provide no new samples. ...
