Using blood tests to guide lung cancer care
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial uses a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) to find tumor DNA in people suspected of having lung cancer. The goal is to learn if this test can help doctors make better treatment decisions without needing a tissue sample.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older
- Your doctor suspects you may have lung cancer
- You have not had another type of cancer in the last 5 years

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 is testing a new way to help find lung cancer earlier by combining imaging (like CT scans) with a blood test that looks at DNA changes. If you have lung cancer and haven't started treatment yet, participating may help improve future detection methods.
This study tests whether a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) can help find lung cancer earlier in people at high risk. It also includes people already diagnosed with lung cancer to refine the test.
This study tests a simple blood test to find lung cancer early, before symptoms appear. It may help detect cancer sooner, when treatment could be more effective.
This study tests whether a blood test (liquid biopsy) can help doctors better understand your lung cancer and plan your treatment. You'll have a blood sample taken alongside standard biopsies to see if the blood test provides useful information about your cancer.
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.
