This is a prospective, multi-center, observational study. The research will be performed in three phases, each using distinct patient cohorts:
Phase I: Discovery - genes/biomarkers/clinical factors Phase II: Algorithm Development Phase III: Assay Validation
The final algorithm (Assay) may incorporate a combination of factors including genetic markers, biomarker(s), and clinical factor(s). Participation in the study does not alter clinical care. The procedures required by the protocol are collection of a research blood sample (at baseline only) and interviews with the subject to collect specific clinical information at baseline and follow-up (6 mos, 1 yr, 2 yr, 3 yr, 4 yr, and 5 yr) after enrollment. All other data collected is in accordance with the participating institution's standard patient care.
