Lung cancer checks for COPD patients
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at people with COPD to find lung cancer earlier using risk-based checks. It may help catch cancer sooner and guide better care.

This study uses an AI-powered blood test to identify people at high risk for lung cancer early, before symptoms appear. You'd be helping researchers see if this blood test can catch lung cancer sooner in people with COPD who have a smoking history.
This trial tests whether people being checked for possible lung cancer can also get improved care for a breathing condition called COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). It focuses on patients whose lung function tests show airflow problems.
This study looks at COPD in people who are already getting lung cancer screening. If you have COPD or a high risk for it, joining this observational trial may help researchers learn more about your condition.
This study looks at people with lung nodules or masses, or those at high risk for lung cancer, to improve how doctors predict cancer risk and recurrence. It combines imaging, blood tests, and tissue samples to better personalize care.
This study looks at how lung cancer screening can also help find and manage COPD, a lung condition that often goes undetected. If you are a current or former smoker and meet certain age and smoking history criteria, you may join to help improve screening and care for both lung cancer and COPD.
This study offers free lung cancer screening (a CT scan) to people aged 50 and older who are at higher risk due to smoking, wood smoke exposure, or COPD. It aims to catch cancer early, when it's easier to treat.
