Description: Both fresh frozen tissue and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumour samples will be obtained.

Biopsies may be taken at entry to the study and/or at the time of radiological response assessment. Each patient can have a maximum of 3 research biopsies in this study.

Up to 35 ml of blood will be collected at study entry to provide normal germline DNA and for possible additional biomarker analysis. If the patient has consented to optional blood sample collection, then additional blood samples will also be collected at the time of radiological response assessment to study molecular changes that occur during treatment.
