Trial summary

This study will collect retrospective CT scan images and clinical data from participants with incidental lung nodules seen in hospitals across London. The investigators will research whether machine learning can be used to predict which participants will develop lung cancer, to improve early diagnosis. Read more about this study

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Machine Learning ClassificationDiagnostic test

    Patient's scans will be used as input into in-house software to extract multiple radiomics features. These features will be used to develop a risk-signature which can predict malignancy risk. Patient scans will also be used as input into deep learning/convolutional neural network models to perform automated imaging classification.

Study groups in NCT04270799
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Lung NodulesA cohort of 1000 patients with incidental lung nodules will be identified using clinical records at participating NHS sites. Link-anonymised CT scan images and data will be stored using a central database for radiomics and artificial intelligence research, to predict the risk of malignancy.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Machine Learning Classification

What is being measured

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

  1. Development of an imaging biobank

    The primary endpoint will be met if we are able to store baseline CT scans and the minimum clinical data set for 1000 patients.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Discovery of a CT-thorax based radiomics profile to predict cancer risk.

    We aim to identify distinct clusters of radiomics variables to generate a radiomics predictive vector (RPV), which can be used to stratify patients according to malignancy risk. This vector will be used in multivariate analysis and compared to existing risk models.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer and Pulmonary Nodule, Multiple, run by Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust at 5 sites in United Kingdom.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United Kingdom. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Richard Lee, MBBS PhD (020 7352 8171, richard.lee@rmh.nhs.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Development of an imaging biobank (time frame: 1 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 11 Jun 2021.
