Assumptions
This is a workshop that would follow several
other topics (e.g., overview of cancer among
AI/ANs, importance of cancer screening, etc.)
Thus, it is not an introductory topic
This is a pilot test to review scientific and cultural
information specific to biobanks and
biospecimens
We appreciate your help in modifying this
workshop
Please write your suggestions down and at the
end of the workshop, we will share comments
Please turn off your cell
phones or switch them
to “vibrate” mode

Audience Response System (ARS) – keypads
This is how we vote on different items and issues
Although the keypads are “anonymous” (we don’t
know who uses which keypad); but we would like you
to use the same one throughout the workshop
You do not need to “point” the keypad (like a TV
remote control)
You will see a counter on the screen that shows how
many people have “voted” on any item
You press the number on the keypad that best
describes your answer (use “0” for “10” on the keypad)

Audience Response System (ARS) – keypads
You can change your vote up until the final vote has
been collected and the slide advances
A top bar appears and the upper right-hand box
needs to be “green” before you vote.
A summary of bar graphs appears on the screen
after the votes are completed for most items so that
everyone can see the total tallies
The summary bar graph will not appear for preworkshop knowledge items or workshop satisfaction

Native Cancer 101 Module 8 Biospecimens and
Biobanking Objectives. By the end of this
session the participant will be able to:
1. Describe biospecimens and biobanking.
2. Discuss ethical, legal, social, spiritual
and cultural considerations and policies
related to tissue donation for research.
3. Identify potential benefits and drawbacks
of taking part in biobanking (individual,
AIAN community, researchers).
4. Explain informed decision-making.
QUESTION: Why is this topic important for
AIANs?
Science is rapidly changing and AIANs
may want to take part (inclusiveness)
As part of research advancing, do AIANs
want to contribute to the body of
knowledge?
Genetic specimens in biobanks and
repositories may contribute to medicines
(targeted therapies) tailored to the
individual or the community

Methods for Collecting of Biospecimens
Cheek swab (as seen on TV)
QUESTION: What are other
ways to collect specimens?
Blood draw
Urine collection
Hair pull (need follicle)
Biopsy
Surgery

Biobanks (also called “Repositories”)
The US has thousands of biorepositories
Vary in size, type of biospecimens
collected, uses and purposes
Can be owned and run by
Government agencies
Private
State governments
companies
Public health departments Universities
Individual investigators

After Research Is Completed
Research results may not be
ready for many years.
Donors don’t get to decide
what type of research for
which their specimen is used
Donors receive results of
own medical tests, but
usually not results of
research performed with
leftover tissue.

Research on biospecimens can…
Answer questions:
Why does cancer develop?
How does cancer grow?
Who is at greater risk of developing it?
How can side effects be lessened?

Biobanked specimens can be used is for
“Personalized Medicine”
Goals of personalized medicine:
Identify genetic differences
between people that affect drug
response
Develop genetic tests that predict
an individual’s response to a drug
Tailor medical treatments to the
individual
Increase effectiveness
Minimize adverse side effects

Havasupai Study & Case (1989 – 2010)
In 2010, the Havasupai Tribal Nation
settled a class action lawsuit against

of Arizona
Misuse of blood

36
Havasupai Study & Case (1989 – 2010)
These research specimens were later used
for multiple other purposes including
research on “schizophrenia, inbreeding and
population migration.”
Insufficient informed consent process
Part of the Havasupai conflict was that the
tribe thought their specimens were being
used for a single study and the researchers
thought the specimens were for biobanking

37
Havasupai (continued)
Researchers need to be careful about
violations of research ethics for individual
studies versus biospecimen storage that
allows many researchers to access the
specimen for studies without subsequent
tribal or individual donor approvals

University and tribal sanctions prohibiting

Based on Tribal Discussion Groups
conducted through “Genetic Education for
Native Americans” (GENA®)
(1999-2004; PI: Burhansstipanov, HG01866]:
Tribal Nations differ greatly on their
perspectives about:
The storage of biospecimens
Inclusion within repositories that do not
require individual informed consent
processes

42
Issues Identified through GENA®
Uses of specimens
For research on a single disease (e.g.,
dedicated use of specimens only for
cancer, heart disease, HIV)
Specimens should not be used to create
patents for drugs or devices
Some tribes have brokered agreements
to have access to new patented drugs
and devices

43
Issues Identified through GENA®
Research on topics of little to no interest to
the tribal nation
Mitochondria DNA to trace roots to
Africa of little to no interest to AI/ANs
Genetic / specimen research on
diabetes, substance abuse, mental
conditions such as depression = high
interest by many tribal Nations

Case Study Real Story: Strong Arm
When entering the lab where the students
were doing their summer fellowship, an
obnoxious worker from the next door lab kept
hounding them to give him a blood
specimen.
Strong Arm said, “no” multiple times.
After a few weeks of refusals, the obnoxious
worker said, “we just want to get practice
taking blood specimens so that my girlfriend
can pass a test to be a phlebotomist.”

48
Real Story: Strong Arm
Strong Arm finally relented and said, “you
can take my blood, but you cannot use it
for anything else and you cannot store it.”
The girlfriend who collected the blood
specimen agreed it would not be used for
anything
She was supposed to dispose of the
residue

Real Story: Strong Arm
2 years later, the girlfriend turned the
blood over to the obnoxious worker (her
boyfriend) because his father promised the
girlfriend a medical fellowship
3 years later (2011), another student
comes up to Strong Arm and says, “I’m
testing your DNA for a specific type of
cancer”

student’s name and was in a personal (an

Talk with tribal spiritual leaders for
potential cultural issues

Making an Informed Choice
Active vs Passive Informed Consent Process
“Active” means you have to say “yes” for
your specimen or data to be included in the
study
“Passive” means you have to say “no” for
your specimen or data to be excluded in
the study
Almost all AI/AN groups (through GENA®)
were opposed to “passive” consent
processes

EAGLES Community Network Programs 2” [P.I. Kaur; U54CA153605]
http://www.NativeAmericanPrograms.org / http://www.NatAmCancerInitiatives.org
59
Informed decision making: Questions to
ask
Is it right for you and your community
Have I received enough and accurate
information?
Are the risks explained
Do I have alternative choices
How is my privacy protected
These are components of an informed
consent process

If you choose to take part, you have rights
(informed decision-making)

Summary / Take Home Messages
A biobank / repository CAN be limited to a
single study … but you need to ask to
confirm this is true if that is important to
you or your tribal Nation
Some specimens (e.g., hair or blood) may
have tribal sanctions prohibiting donations
to biobanks

Summary / Take Home Messages
There are both potential benefits and
drawbacks to taking part in genetic tests
and research; The individual needs to
understand their tribal Nation’s
perspectives and review the potential
impacts to make an informed choice
