About this study

A Study to evaluate the utility of the ProLung Test as an adjunct to CT scan in the diagnosis of lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

This Study will assess the stability of the ProLung Test classification algorithm when used as an adjunct to CT scan. This Study will assess whether there are any potential safety concerns of the ProLung Test when used to evaluate patients with a positive CT scan for lung cancer.

Medical subject headings
Solitary Pulmonary Nodule, Multiple Pulmonary Nodules

What participants receive

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients Suspicious for Lung CancerSubjects are symptomatic of lung cancer and have one or more lung nodules or lung masses suspicious for lung cancer.

What is being measured

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

  1. ProLung Test utility in lung cancer

    This Study will assess the stability of the ProLung Test classification algorithm when used as an adjunct to CT scan to determine whether it is appropriate to be used in a pivotal study.

    Measured: date of conclusive diagnosis

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety and Tolerability of the ProLung Test

    This Study will assess whether there are any potential safety concerns of the ProLung Test when used to evaluate patients with a positive CT scan for lung cancer.

    Measured: within 30 minutes of the ProLung Test

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Solitary Pulmonary Nodule and Multiple Pulmonary Nodules, run by Fresh Medical Laboratories 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 18 inclusion and 13 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 9 Oct 2013. 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?

ProLung Test utility in lung cancer (time frame: date of conclusive diagnosis). 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 9 Oct 2013.
