Using Urine Samples to Identify Lung Cancer
The researchers are doing this study to test the ability of an animal biosensor platform (ABP) to detect NSCLC. Participants in this study will either be diagnosed with NSCLC, suspected to have NSCLC, or have not been diagnosed or suspected to have NSCLC. The ABP test uses laboratory animals that …
Improving Access to Lung Cancer Clinical Trials
There are ~85,000 lung cancer patients (LCPs) in the UK; yet only around 8% were recruited into clinical trials in 2021/22. LCPs need opportunities to take part in clinical trials to access new treatments, increasing their quality of life, treatment choices and life expectancy. Discussions with nurses can help patients …
Vaping Adverse Lung and Heart Events Cohort
This prospective study assesses the pulmonary and cardiovascular effets of vaping in adult electronic cigarette users with biannual visits and a 5-year follow-up.
CPRIT: Patient Adherence to Lung Cancer Screening
To understand participants' barriers to lung cancer screening and their experience with scheduling lung cancer screening.
Value-Based Medicine (VBM) for Lung Cancer
This is a prospective observational monocentric trial. The primary endpoint is the validation of predictive models. These predictive models will be used to develop a personalized clinical-functional risk profile for estimating in advance, prior to surgery, the probability for a patient to experience surgical complications, pain, fatigue, dyspnea, as well …
Characterization of Fetal Lung With Quantitative Ultrasound
The purpose of the study is to show if it's possible to use a special kind of ultrasound called backscatter quantitative ultrasound (bQUS) to check on a baby's lungs when the mother is 36 weeks pregnant. 12 participants will be on study for a single 30 minute ultrasound between 32 …
Environmental Pollutants in COPD and Lung Cancer
Epidemiological studies describe a statistically significant correlation between hospitalization rate and exposure to environmental pollutants such as atmospheric particulates (PM10 and PM2.5) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). Indeed, they induced the release of inflammation mediators and oxidative stress, involved in remodeling and destruction of the alveolar parenchyma, in turn associated …
Lung Ultrasound in Pediatric Acute Chest Syndrome
Sickle-cell disease is a common disease with serious complications, in particular acute chest syndrome (ACS), which can be life threatening. The pathophysiology of ACS is poorly understood, but alveolar hypoventilation appears to play an important role. Pulmonary ultrasound is increasingly used in pediatrics to diagnose ACS. The management of ACS …
Analysis of the Pulmonary Microbiome
The purpose of the protocol is to study the pulmonary microbiome in patients who develop pneumonia.
A Study to Investigate the Family History of Cancer in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (FAHIC - Lung).
Germline testing to find genetic alteration that can be linked to inherited susceptibility of developing the disease is recommended for patients diagnosed with certain solid cancers, such as breast, prostate and ovarian, due to strong association with inheritable mutations implying familiar counselling. Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is the leading …
