DNA test for lung cancer diagnosis
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study is testing a new blood test to help diagnose lung cancer by looking at certain markers in your DNA. Researchers want to see if this test can accurately find lung cancer, which could lead to earlier detection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are a patient at the University of Maryland Baltimore Washington Medical Center.
- You are willing and able to agree to the study procedures.

This study is developing a new blood test that looks at changes in your DNA to help diagnose breast cancer. If you are a patient at the University of Maryland Medical System, you may be able to join.
This study tests a new blood test that looks for lung cancer DNA. It may help find lung cancer early, especially in people at higher risk.
This study looks for new “epigenetic” signals in blood (signals about how genes are turned on/off) to help detect lung cancer early. You might be able to join if you are being evaluated for possible lung cancer or have small, unclear spots on a lung CT scan.
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 tests whether a simple blood test that detects smoking-related changes in DNA can help identify who should get lung cancer screening. Researchers want to see if this test is better at finding people at risk than current methods.
This study tests a blood test that looks for DNA changes from lung cancer. It aims to find out if the test can help tell whether a lung nodule is cancer or not, so that people might avoid unnecessary procedures.
