The Biospecimen Repository Service (BRS) supports basic, translational, clinical, and population-based research through the procurement and distribution of human biospecimens. The BRS coordinates activities to assure efficient movement of human biospecimens through the acquisition-processing-analysis-distribution pathway for protocol driven and de-identified tissue specimens. All biospecimen collection, accession, and storage at the Cancer Institute of New Jersey is done by the BRS Shared Resource.
The specific objectives of this shared resource are:
To identify, procure, process, annotate, bank and distribute high-quality human biospecimens in the requested quantities and state of preservation for use by center members with IRB approved clinical, translational, and basic protocols
To provide clinical, pathological and histological annotations for biospecimens while maintaining strict patient confidentiality via the implementation of an “Honest Broker” system
To implement and maintain a caBIG-compliant data warehouse (OnCore®) to facilitate storage of clinical information
To provide consultation to investigators in the design of research protocols that require tissue procurement for scientific purposes and to optimize the collection of primary and correlative data from clinical and laboratory studies
To facilitate investigator compliance with and navigation through regulatory processes (SRB, IRB, HIPAA) to promote performance of high quality, safe, and ethical research
