About this study

Official title: Cohort Study of Low Dose Computed Tomography for Lung Cancer Screening in Asymptomatic High-risk Patients.

This prospective cohort trial was planned to assess the feasibility of establishing a lung cancer screening program in Russian Federation using low-dose CT scanning in asymptomatic patients with at least a 30 pack-year history of cigarette smoking.

Read the detailed description

Low dose computer tomography (LDCT) showed promising results in recently published studied. Lung cancer screening programs with fluorography introduced in USSR in 70s-80s showed shift to earlier stages with no data on mortality. No other studies or programs on lung cancer screening were introduced in Russia since then.

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of establishing a lung cancer screening program in Russian Federation using LDCT scanning in asymptomatic patients with at least a 30 pack-year history of cigarette smoking. This cohort prospective study is planned to enroll at least 500 current or former smokers.

Patients will be screened by LDCT scan at baseline with recommendation to perform follow-up in case of any positive result. For nodes more than 10 mm full clinical examination is recommended. For nodes 3-9.9 mm follow-up scans in 1, 3 or 6 months is recommended. For nodes smaller than 3 mm and negative results annual LDCT is recommended. Patient with positive results will be followed until final clinical diagnosis.

Secondary outcomes include:

  • Lung cancer diagnoses
  • Lung cancer and overall mortality
  • Quality of life assessment
  • Complications of diagnostic and surgical procedures following a positive result.
  • Comparison of independent radiological evaluation of scans.

What is being measured

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

  1. Estimate the time period for recruitment of 500 participants in LDCT screening study.

    Primary outcome measure is to assess the feasibility of establishing a lung cancer screening program in Russian Federation using low-dose CT scanning in asymptomatic patients with at least a 30 pack-year history of cigarette smoking. The main concern comes from the possibility to recruit participant for screening as small amount of information is available about lung cancer screening options for high-risk population and general practitioners in different regions of the country.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Lung cancer detection rate

    Assess number of lung cancer diagnoses after radiological and morphological verification of positive lung nodules.

    Measured: One year

  2. All-cause mortality

    Assess all-cause mortality mortality within next 5 years.

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Lung cancer mortality

    Assess lung cancer mortality in the screened group within next 5 years.

    Measured: 5 years

  4. Nodule detection rate

    Estimate nodule detection rate, types and sizes of lung nodules found.

    Measured: 3 months

  5. Recruitment strategies

    Assess the efficacy of different recruitment strategy in this study. Information about the study was shared between general practitioners, radiologists, pulmonologists, thoracic oncologist.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Low dose computed tomography in people with Lung Cancer, run by N.N. Petrov National Medical Research Center of Oncology at 2 sites in Russia.

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 5 inclusion and 10 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 4 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Russia. 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?

Estimate the time period for recruitment of 500 participants in LDCT screening study. (time frame: 3 months). 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 4 Sep 2019.
