Biospecimens

Utilizing our extensive global network of collection sites, Phase Clinical offers a wide variety of biospecimens.  We specialize in oncology and healthy volunteer materials, but can cover a wide variety of conditions.

All biospecimens are collected with IRB approval/patient consent and come with data (demographic, clinical, pathological).
