Goals

The Biobank aims to collect, process, and store the highest quality biological materials (prostate tissue, blood and urine) and related comprehensive information from men with prostate cancer and those at risk over time, to make available for the widest possible range of clinically meaningful prostate cancer research. The overarching goal of the Biobank is to increase the quality of patient care and accelerate the impact of research on such care. It will implement the highest standards of biological banking to provide outstanding clinical, medical, demographic and analytic data through the use of upfront broad consent forms.
