Studying lung cancer risk and recurrence after surgery
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study collects medical information and samples over time to better predict who is at risk for lung cancer and whether it might come back after treatment. It may help doctors personalize future screening and follow-up plans.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a lung nodule or mass found on a scan, with a plan for follow-up or treatment decided by a team of specialists.
- You are scheduled for a lung biopsy or surgery to diagnose or treat a lung problem.
- You are between 40 and 75 years old and have a significant smoking history (for example, smoking daily for many years).
- You do not have any condition that makes a lung biopsy or surgery unsafe.
- You are willing to be followed for about 30 months.

This trial uses a mobile unit to screen people at high risk for lung cancer. It aims to catch the disease early, when it's easier to treat.
This study offers lung cancer screening (using scans) for people at high risk due to smoking history and workplace exposure to cancer-causing substances. It aims to find lung cancers earlier and understand who benefits most from regular screening.
This study looks at how people at high risk for lung cancer use low-dose CT scans in real life, and what outcomes happen over time. It may help confirm which groups benefit most from regular screening and support safer screening decisions.
This study builds a detailed lung-cancer database by collecting clinical and lab information from people newly diagnosed. It aims to help doctors better understand lung cancer and how patients are treated from the start.
This study looks at what makes someone more likely to get lung cancer. It aims to improve how we find lung cancer early, especially in people at higher risk.
This study looks at how to find lung cancer earlier by screening people based on their lung-cancer risk. It may help doctors decide who needs further testing if lung nodules are found.
