The Oral Potentially Malignant Lesion Prospective Biobank, Canada

Mono: A biobank that supports a specific research project, may have few staff members, a small-scale accrual scope with little to no initial intention of releasing or distributing biospecimens to secondary parties
Oligo: A biobank that supports several research groups or clinical trials, may or may not be designed to release biospecimens outside their collaborative group
Poly: A biobank that has generally a larger accrual scope, resources, and multiple users outside the biobank proper

Certification Status: Approved

Registration Status: Completed

Objective: The objective of this research is to establish an oral tissue biobank to serve as a resource for future researchers and research interested in the role genetics, environment and lifestyle play in the development of potentially cancerous oral disease.
