About this study

Official title: Different Strategies Using Autoantibodies and/or CT Scan Detection of Lung Cancer

Lung cancer is the number one cancer killer in the USA. Early stage lung cancer is asymptomatic. Most patients with lung cancer are usually symptomatic at diagnosis and already have advanced stage disease. Low dose CT screening (LDCT) for high risk individuals has recently been shown to decrease lung cancer mortality by 20%. However, 4 out of 5 lung cancer deaths are not prevented with LDCT screening alone.

Read the detailed description

In this trial, the addition of a blood biomarker test is being combined with early LDCT to determine if screening with combination may result in detection of more lung cancer at an earlier stage of disease.The study will also assess if the blood test is able to detect lung cancers in high risk individuals when the LDCT is negative for cancer. There will be health-economic costs included in the final analysis of study data.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. CT alone vs. both Early CDT-Lung test and CT scan.

    Assess the number of lung cancers detected with CT alone vs. with both Early CDT-Lung test and CT scan. Compare positive CT results with positive/negative Early CDT Lung test results and assess ability of the combination to detect earlier stage lung cancer.

    Measured: One year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Value of Early CDT-lung test in detecting cancer

    Assess the value of Early CDT-lung test in detecting lung cancer in individuals who are CT scan negative but positive for Early CDT-lung.

    Measured: One year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CT scan & Early CDT Lung test in people with High Risk of Developing Lung Cancer, run by National Jewish Health at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

CT alone vs. both Early CDT-Lung test and CT scan. (time frame: One year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Dec 2020.
