Study of CT scans to predict cancer spread in early lung cancer
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at CT scans from people with early-stage lung cancer to see if we can predict if the cancer might have spread through the air spaces in the lung. It aims to help doctors decide on better treatment after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a CT scan showing a lung nodule smaller than about 3 cm (1.2 inches) across.
- You had surgery to remove the nodule, and it was confirmed as invasive lung adenocarcinoma.
- You did not have cancer that spread to other parts of your body before surgery.
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You have not had lung surgery before or received chemotherapy or radiation before your surgery.
- You did not have other types of cancer before your lung surgery.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses a special type of CT scan (dual energy CT) to look at lung nodules that are 3 cm or smaller and have been confirmed as lung adenocarcinoma. The goal is to see if the scan can help tell how aggressive the cancer is, which may guide treatment decisions.
This study uses CT scans and medical records to build a model that helps tell the difference between benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous) solid lung nodules. It aims to improve diagnosis and reduce unnecessary surgeries.
This study looks for biological markers (signs in blood or tissue) that predict how early-stage lung cancer spreads. If you have recently diagnosed lung cancer, this research could help doctors better understand your cancer and plan better treatments.
This study looks at how lung cancer spreads in people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. It may help doctors better understand the disease and improve treatment.
This trial tests if a special imaging analysis can predict where your cancer might spread. It's for people with advanced lung, colorectal, or breast cancer who are starting or continuing treatment.
This study looks for cancer cells that travel through the blood or spread through air spaces in the lungs of people with early-stage lung cancer. The goal is to understand how these cells affect the disease, and it may help doctors plan better treatment in the future.
