About this study

The Breast Cancer Program Longitudinal Repository (BCPLR) is being established to fulfill the research mission of the Breast Cancer Program at Johns Hopkins and to serve investigators affiliated with it - to develop a repository of specimens with corresponding characteristics from patients seen in the breast care and cancer clinics.

Read the detailed description

This research is being done to collect samples for future use that we may learn more about cancer by studying cells in blood and tissue collected from people with breast cancer as well as from volunteers without breast cancer. Our goal is to make these available for research to help to learn how cancer develops and how it may be treated.
