Urine test for early lung cancer detection
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study is testing if urine samples can help detect lung cancer early. You might help by providing a urine sample—either if you have early-stage lung cancer, have a suspicious lung nodule, or don’t have lung cancer at all.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 90 years old.
- Either you have untreated, early-stage lung cancer (stage I, II, or IIIA), or you have a suspicious nodule on a CT/PET scan that hasn’t been diagnosed, or you do not have lung cancer and want to serve as a control.
- You haven’t had any cancer treatment (like chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery) in the past year.
- You do not have a chronic immune system disease or take immune-suppressing medications.
- You have had a low-dose CT scan, and the results are available.

This study uses a special blood test to look for tiny traces of lung cancer after surgery. It aims to find “minimal residual disease,” meaning cancer cells that may still be hiding after your tumor is removed.
This study looks for cancer-related cells and DNA in samples like blood, urine, and (for some) bone marrow. The goal is to see whether these tests can help detect or track solid cancers with minimal added procedures.
This study is evaluating a blood-based test that might detect lung cancer early, before symptoms appear. Researchers are looking for heavy smokers who have no signs of cancer, as well as those with suspicious lung nodules or confirmed lung cancer, to see if a simple blood draw could help identify cancer sooner.
This study is testing a new blood test that looks for changes in DNA to detect lung cancer early. It's for people with a new lung cancer diagnosis, those with uncertain CT scan results, healthy volunteers, or those with chronic lung problems.
This study uses a blood test to look for tiny genetic markers (miRNA and DNA methylation) that may help detect lung cancer early. If you have a lung nodule or mass found on a CT scan and haven't had treatment yet, you may be able to join.
This study tests a breath test to detect lung cancer early in people with a lung nodule found on a CT scan. It aims to improve detection in diverse populations.
