About this study

OBJECTIVES:

Establish a central lung cancer specimen repository to serve as a resource for current and future scientific studies.
Correlate clinicopathologic information in the Southwest Oncology Group clinical data base with results of studies using the repository.
Test new hypotheses with the specimens in the repository.

OUTLINE: Peripheral blood, sputum, and biopsy specimens are collected from patients. Tissue samples are frozen and stored in a lung cancer specimen repository for later use in correlative studies.
