Abstract
Charlie Teo Foundation Brain Tumour Bank (CTFBTB) was started by Charlie Teo Foundation (CTF), an Australian charity funding brain cancer research. CTFBTB was established under the CTF’s research strategy of More Data – to produce and share high-quality, well-annotated, biological and clinical data that has the potential to drive further innovation and scientific breakthroughs. CTFBTB collects samples of human tissue, live cells, DNA and blood to be used for brain cancer research. CTFBTB also has a cell line repository of real-world brain tumours. Researchers can apply to use these valuable and accurate models that enable more refined analysis of the mechanisms that regulate individual patient response to treatment and allow for the further development of models for precision medicine.
Highlights
Charlie Teo Foundation Brain Tumour Bank (CTFBTB) was started by Charlie Teo Foundation (CTF), an Australian charity funding brain cancer research
Brain cancer research with real world impacts into the 1) identification of risk, 2) early detection, 3) sub-classification, and 4) identification of new drug targets and treatments across a broad range of research fields, including molecular and cell biology, cancer genetics, clinical research and biomarker research heavily rely on the use of high-quality samples
The proposed establishment of CTFBTB will collect, process, store, retrieve and disseminate high-quality samples and information for research projects following informed consent from participants diagnosed with brain tumours, ranging from the relatively benign pituitary adenomas and meningiomas through to the aggressive forms of brain cancer such as glioblastoma and gliosarcoma
