About this trial
We propose to perform NGS and OGM with DNA extracted from bone marrow (BM; site of cancer) and NGS on skin fibroblast DNA (proxy for germline) on all patients with hematologic malignancies (HM) who undergo a standard-of-care BM biopsy at Georgia Cancer Center/Wellstar MCG Health. Simultaneous 4 mm punch skin biopsy for fibroblast culture will be obtained at the planned puncture site of the BM biopsy. The bone marrow biopsy and aspirate are already part of the patient's scheduled medical evaluation and the punch biopsy of the skin is the only additional procedure involved in the study.
