Title:

Evaluation for NCI Surgery Branch Clinical Research Protocols

Number:

99-C-0128

Summary:

Patients with a suspected or proven malignant disease (cancer) will be admitted to this study to be evaluated for suitability in a clinical trial of the National Cancer Institute's Surgery Branch.

No experimental treatments will be administered in this study; its purpose is solely to evaluate patients for eligibility in other NCI Surgery Branch trials. In rare cases, patients who are ineligible for a current study may nevertheless be admitted for standard treatment because their condition represents a unique training or research experience.

Patients will undergo various tests and procedures, depending on the study for which they are being considered. The tests may include, but not be limited to, various blood tests, such as HLA tissue typing and hepatitis screening; imaging tests such as PET, MRI and CT scans, and procedures such as pulmonary function tests, arteriogram, tumor biopsy, and laparoscopy.
