Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Other illness
- Is unable to cough with sufficient exertion to produce a sputum sample (e.g., due to severe obstructive lung disease).
- Had lung cancer diagnosis in the past 5 years or any other cancer (other than non-melanoma skin cancer) in the past 2 years. A subject on long-term medications used for prevention of cancer, such as Tamoxifen for breast cancer, is not excluded.
- Has angina with minimal exertion.
Other
- The dominant nodule is ground glass or part solid as determined by CT scan.
- Has 5 or more nodules sized \>4 mm.
- The nodule sized \>6 to \<30 mm in diameter is a perifissural nodule.
- Is immunosuppressed.
- Has rheumatoid arthritis.
- Is currently pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant during this study.
Who the study is looking for
- Is able to give signed informed consent and comply with study requirements.
- Is high risk for getting lung cancer:
- ≥50 - 80 years of age.
- current smoker with smoking history of at least 20 pack-years or current non-smoker with smoking history of at least 20 pack-years who quit smoking within the past 15 years.
- Has a \>6 to \<30 mm diameter lung nodule (found by lung cancer screening or found incidentally by CT scan) as determined by CT and is willing to provide a sputum sample for FlowPath Lung test within 12 weeks (3 months) of the prestudy baseline CT scan.
- 3a) Nodule is either new, increasing, or stable for ≤ 6 months. 3b) In cases where a person has multiple nodules as determined by CT scan, the subject's most suspicious nodule is \>6 to \<30 mm in diameter.
- 4\) Is willing to provide contact information to the study PI or the treating physician(s) who can release required medical information related to SOC follow-up.
