Using Urine Samples to Identify Lung Cancer

Validation and Determination of Feasibility for Clinical Use of an Animal Biosensor Platform to Detect Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer-Specific Volatile Organic Compounds in Urine Samples

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The researchers are doing this study to test the ability of an animal biosensor platform (ABP) to detect NSCLC. Participants in this study will either be diagnosed with NSCLC, suspected to have NSCLC, or have not been diagnosed or suspected to have NSCLC. The ABP test uses laboratory animals that are trained to detect (by smell) different chemicals in urine. Studies show that people with lung cancer have unique chemicals in their urine that are not present in people without lung cancer, and researchers think these chemicals can be used to identify people with lung cancer without the need for invasive procedures (like biopsy).

    • °Note: Single, monolateral nodule of at least 50% solid composition visible on a Chest CT scan that is suspicious for a primary neoplasm as confirmed by an official MSK radiologist read
  • Phase I (without NSCLC): Aged 18 to 90 years with patient confirmed absence of NSCLC
  • Phase II: Aged 18 to 90 years with suspected but undiagnosed stage I, II, or IIIA NSCLC by CT and/or PET scan criteria

Age in the registry: 18 years to 90 years · Sex: All · Accepts healthy volunteers
