Lung cancer screening for high-risk Black adults
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study is designed to help Black adults at higher risk get lung cancer screening. It checks whether a screening approach can catch lung problems early and connect people to the right next steps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a self-identified Black person
- You have smoked in the past (current or former smoking is okay)
- You must be between 50 and 80 years old
- You should not have ever been diagnosed with lung cancer
- You should not have lung cancer–type symptoms right now (shortness of breath, getting winded easily, or a cough lasting 12 weeks or more without improvement)
- You should not have had pneumonia or a serious lung infection in the last 12 weeks that needed antibiotics

This trial helps Black or African-American adults who smoke or quit recently learn about and get lung cancer screening. It uses a health education approach to guide you through the process.
This study helps Black adults who smoke or recently quit get lung cancer screening. It aims to increase screening rates and catch lung cancer early.
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 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 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 is testing a new way to screen for lung cancer in people at high risk because of their smoking history. If you qualify, you'll get regular checks to find any problems early, when they might be easier to treat.
