Other related information

This study is a multicenter, exploratory, prospective, non-interventional study.
In this study, blood samples will primarily be collected in addition to blood draws performed for routine clinical purposes. However, blood collection solely for research purposes is also permitted. Research specimens will also be prepared from surplus samples obtained during biopsy and surgery.
These specimens will be analyzed, and the results will be integrated with clinical data collected via an Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system, including imaging profiles such as pathological and radiological image profiles.
