Pollutants and lung health in COPD and lung cancer
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how environmental pollutants affect people with suspected lung cancer. It may help understand what role pollution plays in lung disease.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks for new early warning signs (biomarkers) of how air pollution affects lung and blood health. It is for people with COPD, lung cancer, or leukemia who have never smoked much, as well as for healthy hospital workers.
This trial studies blood and tissue samples from people with COPD, IPF, or lung cancer to find markers that can help diagnose and predict these conditions. It aims to discover why some lung diseases progress to cancer.
This trial tests whether people being checked for possible lung cancer can also get improved care for a breathing condition called COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). It focuses on patients whose lung function tests show airflow problems.
This study follows people who currently smoke and people who may have newly found COPD (chronic obstructive lung disease) based on breathing test results. It aims to better understand lung disease in real life and what it means for health over time.
This study looks at COPD in people who are already getting lung cancer screening. If you have COPD or a high risk for it, joining this observational trial may help researchers learn more about your condition.
This study looks at different forms of COPD to find better ways to treat them. It may help you understand your own condition and receive more personalized care.
