Centralized lung cancer screening study
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial is testing a centralized way to help people who are at high risk for lung cancer get screened earlier. It aims to make the process easier and catch lung cancer sooner, when it's more treatable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 77 years old.
- You are a current or former smoker with at least 20 pack-years of smoking (that's about a pack a day for 20 years).
- You quit smoking within the last 15 years.
- You have not had a chest CT scan in the past year.
- You have never had lung cancer, and it has been at least 5 years since any other cancer diagnosis.

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 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.
This study tests whether combining low-dose chest CT scans with blood “biomarker” tests can help find lung cancer earlier in people at higher risk. You may be asked to have scans and blood tests and then attend follow-up visits over time.
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 tests a patient-and-provider program to improve lung cancer screening for people who have missed appointments or did not follow through. It may help you get back on track with lung screening after a longer gap.
This study offers mobile low-dose CT scans to help find lung problems early in people at higher risk from smoking. You may be invited because of your age and smoking history, and the results may guide next steps with your care team.
