This clinical research protocol is intended to allow for bone marrow aspirate/biopsy and
blood specimens to be collected for research purposes, specifically allowing subjects the
option of sedation during the bone marrow procedure. Samples will be banked for future
research related to cancer and other diseases. Researchers hope this protocol will improve
the collection of research correlative and translational biopsy specimens for clinical
research.


Inclusion Criteria:

- PLanned procedure including a bone marrow aspirate and/or bone marrow biopsy

- The procedure is planned for the purpose of obtaining a research specimen (as part of
another research study or as part of this stand-alone sample collection protocol.).
Procedures with a dual purpose (i.e. to obtain both clinically-indicated specimens
and research specimens) are permitted, but procedures to obtain clinical specimens
only are not permitted.

- All subjects must provide written informed consent for the biopsy procedure, the
collection of bone marrow and blood specimens for research purposes and (if planned)
the administration of sedation.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Moderate sedation may not be administrated to subjects with a clinical
contraindication to its provision, or if the investigator believes that
administration of moderate sedation would constitute under risk to the subject.
