Lung nodule study: using CT scans and breathing tests
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at lung nodules found on CT scans. Researchers will collect data from your breathing tests and CT scans to better understand how these nodules relate to lung cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a lung nodule found on a CT scan
- You are between 18 and 75 years old
- You can complete breathing tests (pulmonary function tests) with good effort
- Your CT scan images are clear with no missing parts
- Your breathing test and CT scan were done within one month of each other
- You are not taking certain medications that interfere with the breathing test

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial follows people with lung nodules over time, using blood and tissue samples to look for metabolic changes that may help understand lung cancer better. If you have a lung nodule found on a CT scan and can safely do lung function tests, this study may be a fit.
This trial uses a new, non-invasive way to screen for lung cancer by combining your breath, blood, and CT scan images. The goal is to figure out whether a nodule found on a CT scan is cancerous or not, which could help patients avoid unnecessary procedures.
This study looks at whether a new test can better identify early lung cancer in people who are being watched for an incidental lung nodule. It may help doctors decide which nodules need closer follow-up or treatment.
This trial is testing a simple breath test to see if it can tell whether a lung nodule is cancer or not. If you have a lung nodule that will be removed by surgery, you may be able to help find out if breathing into a device can replace more invasive tests.
This study looks at whether MRI scans and blood-related biomarkers can help better understand lung nodules found during routine lung cancer screening. It may help doctors decide which nodules need closer follow-up versus less intensive monitoring.
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.
