Lung nodule blood test study for cancer detection
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study is collecting blood samples from people with lung nodules to help design a better test for lung cancer. It may help find cancer earlier without invasive procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a lung nodule that is at least 5 mm wide and has a moderate chance of being cancer (based on a standard risk calculator).
- You and your doctor plan to follow up on the nodule with a biopsy, PET scan, or regular monitoring within the next 7 months.
- You can safely donate about 2.5 tablespoons of blood.
- You are age 18 or older and can give your own consent.
- You do not have a current or past cancer diagnosis (some exceptions for past cancers not in the lung, if in remission over 5 years).

This study uses a simple blood test to look for early signs of lung cancer in people who have suspicious spots (nodules) found on their lungs. The blood test checks for cancer DNA and changes in how genes are marked, which may help doctors know if a nodule is cancer or not.
This trial uses a simple blood test to look at certain genetic markers that may help doctors decide if a lung nodule is cancerous or not. It is designed for people who have a lung nodule that needs further testing like a biopsy or surgery.
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 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.
This study collects blood, tissue, and other samples from people with lung nodules, suspected lung cancer, or confirmed lung cancer to find better ways to diagnose and treat the disease. By joining, you help researchers discover new biomarkers that could improve care for future patients.
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.
