Lung cancer screening for high-risk workers and smokers
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study offers lung cancer screening (using scans) for people at high risk due to smoking history and workplace exposure to cancer-causing substances. It aims to find lung cancers earlier and understand who benefits most from regular screening.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be high risk because of smoking history: at least 30 pack-years (current or past smoker)
- If you quit smoking, it must have been less than 15 years ago
- You must have had cancer-causing exposure at work (occupational exposure) that meets the study’s rules
- You must NOT have signs or symptoms that already suggest lung cancer
- You must NOT have had lung cancer before
- You must not have had a chest CT scan in the last 12 months

This study offers free lung cancer screening (a CT scan) to people aged 50 and older who are at higher risk due to smoking, wood smoke exposure, or COPD. It aims to catch cancer early, when it's easier to treat.
This study combines lung cancer screening with a smoking cessation program and a breathing assessment. Participants get a low-dose CT scan to detect lung cancer early, when it’s easier to treat.
This study looks at how people at high risk for lung cancer use low-dose CT scans in real life, and what outcomes happen over time. It may help confirm which groups benefit most from regular screening and support safer screening decisions.
This study tests a lung cancer screening program using low-dose CT scans and a blood test to find cancer early. It is for people who smoke or used to smoke.
This study looks at how to find lung cancer earlier by screening people based on their lung-cancer risk. It may help doctors decide who needs further testing if lung nodules are found.
This trial uses imaging scans to detect lung cancer early in people with a significant smoking history. The goal is to find lung cancer before symptoms appear, when treatment may be more effective.
