RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of blood and bone marrow from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about diagnosing cancer and how well patients will respond to treatment.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to collect and store blood and bone marrow samples from patients with hematologic cancer to be tested in the laboratory.
Primary objective:
Other objectives as funding permits:
OUTLINE: Patients receive treatment as directed by the Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) study to which they are registered.
Patients undergo collection of peripheral blood (myeloid leukemia) or venous blood (lymphoid leukemia) and bone marrow at baseline, at the time of response or remission, and at the time of progression or relapse. Additional collections may take place according to the guidelines of the study in which the patient is registered.
Specimens are stored for use in laboratory research.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Samples from a maximum of 1,000 patients will be collected for this study.
