Description:
Patients enrolled in TARGET-IBD may be invited to participate in the Biorepository Bank (BSB). Blood samples for biomarker and DNA assays will be collected on a voluntary basis and participation in this project will not affect participation in the main study. These samples will be shipped to a central repository for storage to use in future studies. Samples stored at the biorepository will be identified only with the participant's unique study ID number and the date the sample was obtained. The link between the participant's study ID number and their name will be available only at the site where the samples were obtained.
