Program Description
Leidos Biomedical Research, Inc. (LBR) operates the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research (FNLCR), a Federally Funded Research and Development Center focused on cancer and AIDS research, on behalf of the National Cancer Institute (NCI). It also manages the federal government’s only vaccine manufacturing facilities and the high-performance Advanced Biomedical Computing Center.
LBR’s Molecular Characterization Laboratory (MoCha) develops and performs clinical assays in support of the NCI’s Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis (DCTD). As a dedicated and approved government contractor, MoCha is responsible for providing genomic assay support for DCTD-sponsored clinical trials and has developed stringent quality systems to ensure the strictest adherence to regulatory requirements and expectations of patient confidentiality and specimen integrity.
DCTD and MoCha are jointly responsible for the NCI Cancer Moonshot℠ Biobank program, a new and innovative clinical trial which is intended to accelerate cancer research in key strategic areas that were identified by experts convened in 2016 through a “Blue Ribbon Panel” (https://www.cancer.gov/research/key-initiatives/moonshot-cancer-initiative/blue-ribbon-panel). The strategic areas have in common two core elements: (1) critical scientific and medical questions, the answers to which could rapidly accelerate progress in cancer research, and (2) the need for nationwide participation by a diverse group of research subjects who have agreed to share their biospecimens and/or derived data to contribute to progress in cancer research.
