The ultimate goal of translational research is to move observations forward into clinical application. The intent of the TTSA is to leverage information from existing or completed clinical trials to address knowledge gaps in resulting outcomes. Studies may involve tissue or biopsy procurement or utilization of existing tissue sources. Of particular interest are studies investigating the differences in prognosis and treatment with respect to primary nodal status and/or the presence of metastatic disease; research on precursor lesions and the relationship to prevention and potential outcomes; investigations into tumor heterogeneity (e.g....
