Brief Title: A Retrospective Protocol Empowering Precision Research in Colorectal Cancer (ALFAOMEGA-RETRÒ)
Official Title: A Retrospective Protocol Empowering Precision Research in Colorectal Cancer (ALFAOMEGA-RETRÒ)
Study ID: NCT05101382
Brief Summary: ALFAOMEGA-RETRÒ will be exploited to retrospectively collect clinical and imaging data and archival samples to be used for validation and correlative studies on markers discovered by cutting-edge translational projects within the AIRC5x1000 program "Insights into the evolving heterogeneity of colorectal cancer (CRC): from mechanism to therapies" (an ongoing multi-institutional research program).
Detailed Description: ALFAOMEGA-RETRÒ, the retrospective "mirror" protocol of ALFAOMEGA (protocol n. IFOM-CPO003/2018/PO002), has been designed to build a retrospective collection of clinically annotated data and biological samples retrieved from colorectal cancer patients (CRC). The repository will feed experimental precision research aimed at i) defining a new taxonomy of CRC based on evolutionary patterns (retrospectively assessed on patient's samples), ii) developing and evaluating innovative biomarker-specific therapeutic strategies derived from or together with ALFAOMEGA. The following data and biological samples will be collected: * Clinical Data (Demographics, Medical History, Cancer Diagnosis \& History, Treatment Assessment,). * Imaging Data (CT-Scans, MRI, PET...). * Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) tissue (either from surgical resections or diagnostic biopsies). * Frozen biological samples (blood, plasma, PBMC, stools, buccal swabs, urines, etc.).
