Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This proposed collection of primary tumor cells lines will benefit esophageal cancer research within the University Health Network. This collection of gastro-esophageal tumor samples will be used to grow primary tumor cell lines, which will provide researchers with ready samples of various gastro-esophageal cancers. This will help to address the issue of access to these cell lines due to the limited number of patients with gastro-esophageal tumors, and high rates of contamination.

- description
- The primary objective of this study is to determine an effective way to culture, proliferate, and store primary gastro-esophageal cell lines in order to create a bank of primary esophageal / gastric cancers or GERD with/without Barrett's esophagus for research purposes, in addition we will be creating organoids.
