A Study of Application of Clonal Analysis to Study Flow Sorted Clinical Samples from Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors

Overview

About this study

This study is being done so researchers can study the genetics of your tumor to better understand how the tumor grows and spreads and collect a blood sample to analyze the genetic material (DNA).
