This study, called the Arizona Cancer Center Biospecimen Repository, is collecting and storing samples of tissue and blood from people with cancer. The goal is to create a resource for future cancer research. If you are an adult cancer patient being treated at the Arizona Cancer Center or University Medical Center and are having surgery or a procedure for your cancer, you may be able to participate. The study aims to gather enough samples to help scientists learn more about cancer. The study is currently collecting samples and will continue to do so until at least July 2024.
