Tissue Sample Study (CYBRID-02)

The purpose of this research is to collect a tissue sample (biopsies) and medical information, from you to help Elephas develop an investigational diagnostic platform. We hope this platform will one day help to predict how individuals may respond to certain cancer treatment drugs. This test may aid doctors in future cancer treatment guidance and may help identify patients who may respond well to certain cancer treatment drugs.

Age & Gender

  • Male, Female, Gender Inclusive

Visit Availability

What will be asked of you

If you decide to take part in this study, a tissue sample (biopsy) and medical information will be collected. The sample collection will be conducted during a biopsy visit to collect tissue. We will review your medical record regularly after your biopsy for the first year, and every 6 months for another 2 years. Your healthcare provider will collect information related to any follow-up assessments performed, survival status, active therapy/treatment regimen, response to treatment, and imaging results from your medical record. Any information related to your cancer diagnosis will be recorded, if available.
