The majority of CHTN tissue collection is performed in the context of excess or “leftover” tissue present in specimens resected from patients as part of their routine clinical care
Fresh and frozen tissue samples have matched tissue samples fixed in formalin and embedded in paraffin for histologic sectioning

BACKGROUND (cont.)
Tissue samples are provided to investigators with pertinent clinicopathologic data obtained from the surgical pathology report and other clinical records
The histologic slides from the FFPE tissue are examined for tissue content and agreement with associated clinicopathologic data by an Anatomic Pathologist

QUALITY CONTROL DATA COLLECTED
Anatomic site of procured tissue
Tissue classification:• Malignant neoplasm• Neoplasm indeterminate for malignancy• Benign neoplasm or mass• Diseased (non-neoplastic)• Normal

QUALITY CONTROL DATA COLLECTED (cont.) If malignant neoplasm:• Primary• Recurrent• Metastatic• Uncertain if primary or metastatic
If metastatic, site of primary tumor
Additional diagnostic classification (e.g. specific disease classification from clinical pathology report)
If QC material consistent with annotated clinicopathologic data

QUALITY CONTROL DATA COLLECTED (cont.)
If a neoplasm (tumor) is present in the tissue section, two different assessments of tumor percentage are made:• % cellularity an estimate of the number of tumor cells in the histologic section relative to the total number of cells • % area an estimate of the area of tissue involved by tumor
The % area and % cellularity may be discrepant if:• The tumor is invested by a large number of inflammatory cells• The tumor has a high degree of fibrosis• The tumor has large areas of acellular mucin

QUALITY CONTROL DATA COLLECTED (cont.)
Tumor attributes that are assessed:• % tumor necrosis, by cellularity
(using only tumor cells as denominator)• % non-neoplastic stroma, by area
(using only tumor area as denominator)• % acellular mucin, by area
(using only tumor area as denominator)
