It is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Europe and the second most common cause of cancer death. Estimates indicate that around 1.2 million European citizens currently are living with a diagnosis of CRC (Globocan). In Luxemburg, CRC has an incidence generally exceeding 500 cases per year (Publication Registre National Cancer 2013).\n\nThe high incidence and mortality rates emphasize the need for prevention and early diagnosis. Biomedical research and precision medicine heavily rely on biospecimens to identify new therapeutic targets and biomarkers. Researchers need access to high-quality samples and consistent clinical and pathological information. \n\nIn this context, the Molecular Disease Mechanisms Group at the University of Luxembourg has established an ongoing collection of tumor tissue samples from CRC patients, assembling over 160 high quality patient samples. This collection, initiated in 2010, has been achieved through the involvement of oncologists and surgeons from different hospitals in Luxembourg, nurses from the Clinical and Epidemiological Investigation Center (CIEC) at LIH, pathologists from the LNS as well as collection managers at the IBBL and researchers at the University of Luxembourg. This collection, which contains several sample types, such as serum, stool and tumor tissue and normal counterparts from the same patients, is available to all researchers and allows them to perform translational research. The will at the University of Luxembourg is to integrate this collection as a national CRC cohort in the PLAN CANCER. This collection would perfectly be suited to represent a research cohort available for researchers in Luxembourg and abroad.","rp_start_date":"2022-10-01 14:43:52","rp_duration":60,"rp_main_funder":"Fondation Cancer Luxembourg","rp_other_funders":["University of Luxembourg"],"rp_external_partners":["Integrated Biobank of Luxembourg (IBBL)","Luxembourg Institute of Health","Clinical and Epidemiological Investigation Center (CIEC)","Luxembourg Institute of Health","Centre Hospitalier Emile Mayrisch","Luxembourg","H\u00f4pitaux Robert Schuman","Luxembourg","Centre Hospitalier du Nord","Luxembourg","Neuropathology Unit","Laboratoire National de Sant\u00e9 Dudelange","Luxembourg"],"rp_keywords":["colorectal cancer","biospecimens","biomarkers"],"rp_members":[{"id":"50002203","isExternal":false,"isPI":true,"name":"Elisabeth Letellier","featuredImageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/en\/person-image\/NTAwMDIyMDNfX0VsaXNhYmV0aCBMRVRFTExJRVI=","detailsPageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/blog\/people\/elisabeth-letellier\/"},{"id":"50001913","isExternal":false,"isPI":true,"name":"Serge Haan","featuredImageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/en\/person-image\/NTAwMDE5MTNfX1NlcmdlIEhBQU4=","detailsPageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/blog\/people\/serge-haan\/"},{"isExternal":true,"isPI":false,"name":"Michel Mittelbronn","featuredImageUrl":"","detailsPageUrl":"","entity":"-"},{"isExternal":true,"isPI":false,"name":"Am\u00e9lie Gaignaux","featuredImageUrl":"","detailsPageUrl":"","entity":"-"},{"name":"Carole Bauer","isPI":false,"isExternal":true,"featuredImageUrl":"","detailsPageUrl":"","entity":"-"},{"name":"Mark Berna","isPI":false,"isExternal":true,"featuredImageUrl":"","detailsPageUrl":"","entity":"-"},{"name":"Alain Foxius","isPI":false,"isExternal":true,"featuredImageUrl":"","detailsPageUrl":"","entity":"-"},{"name":"Nikolaus Z\u00fcgel","isPI":false,"isExternal":true,"featuredImageUrl":"","detailsPageUrl":"","entity":"-"},{"name":"Manon Gantenbein","isPI":false,"isExternal":true,"featuredImageUrl":"","detailsPageUrl":"","entity":"-"}]},"research-project-status":[275],"research-project-type":[274],"field-of-interest":[293],"organisation":[100,29,102],"authorship":[136,108,110,102],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/core-researches\/10070"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/core-researches"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/core-researches"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/136"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/core-researches\/10070\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23832,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/core-researches\/10070\/revisions\/23832"}],"wp:authorship":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/136"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/108"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/110"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/102"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"research-project-status","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/research-project-status?post=10070"},{"taxonomy":"research-project-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/research-project-type?post=10070"},{"taxonomy":"field-of-interest","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/field-of-interest?post=10070"},{"taxonomy":"organisation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fstm-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/organisation?post=10070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
