Blood test for lung cancer detection
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 80 years old.
- You are a smoker with a heavy smoking history, or a never/light smoker with a close relative who has lung cancer.
- You are willing to have a low-dose CT scan and give a blood sample.
- You have not had lung cancer or any other cancer before (except certain skin cancers).
- You are not currently taking certain medications for cancer or autoimmune diseases.

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.
This trial is testing whether low-dose CT scans can help find lung cancer early in people at high risk because of their smoking history. If you join, you will get a special type of chest scan that may help catch lung cancer sooner, when it's easier to treat.
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.
This study is testing a new blood test that looks for changes in DNA to detect lung cancer early. It's for people with a new lung cancer diagnosis, those with uncertain CT scan results, healthy volunteers, or those with chronic lung problems.
This study is evaluating a blood-based test that might detect lung cancer early, before symptoms appear. Researchers are looking for heavy smokers who have no signs of cancer, as well as those with suspicious lung nodules or confirmed lung cancer, to see if a simple blood draw could help identify cancer sooner.
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.
