Decision-Making Support for Suspected Lung Nodules
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study helps patients with lung nodules that might be cancer make informed choices about their next steps—whether to have surgery, more tests, or watch and wait. Researchers will gather information about how patients and doctors make these decisions together.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a lung nodule that doctors suspect might be cancer based on imaging and exam
- You have not been definitively diagnosed with lung cancer yet
- You have more than one reasonable treatment option to choose from (surgery, more tests, or monitoring)
- You can understand study procedures and complete questionnaires
- You can give written informed consent

This study looks at whether traditional Chinese medicine can help people with lung nodules that are being watched by a doctor. It may help guide treatment options for those not needing immediate surgery.
This study tests a shared decision-making approach to help people with lung adenocarcinoma decide whether to get molecular (genetic) testing. It aims to improve understanding and support better choices about testing and possible targeted treatments.
This trial tests a quality-of-life support program meant to help people with early-stage lung cancer think through their treatment choices. It may help you feel more informed and more confident about deciding between treatments like surgery and SBRT.
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 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 tests a patient “decision aid” to help people decide about lung cancer screening. It may help you understand risks and benefits and feel more confident about next steps.
