Tumor Control, Treatment Toxicity, Quality of Life and Bio-Imaging Repository Databank (TQ-BIRD) for Cancer Patients

Summary

Our central hypothesis is that patient response to treatment, evaluated by full spectrum of outcome measures including tumor control, survival, toxicity, and quality of life (QoL), will correlate with biomarker expressions, which can be tested in the blood, other body fluid, imaging as well as tumor tissue (if available).
