Lung cancer screening study for higher-risk adults
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether people at higher risk for lung cancer can be safely screened using regular chest CT scans. You might benefit from closer monitoring, and the study helps doctors learn the best way to catch lung cancer earlier.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 45 and 75 years old
- Have at least one higher-risk factor for lung cancer (smoking history, cancer in the family, your own past cancer, chemical exposure, heavy second-hand smoke exposure, or cooking oil fume exposure)
- If you used to smoke, stop smoking within the past 15 years
- If you have had cancer before, it must be more than 5 years ago
- Do not have had a chest CT scan in the last 12 months
