PROACT LUNG Study is a research project aiming to test a new blood test to find lung cancer early. This test will be checked with other common tests like Low-Dose Computed Tomography (LDCT) scans, which are special X-rays for the lungs. People who want to join must be 50 or older, have a history of smoking (at least 20 pack-years), and be able to understand and sign consent forms. A pack-year is a way to measure how much someone has smoked over a long time.
The study will last at least 24 months. Participants will need to give a blood sample and have a chest CT scan. Blood samples should be collected within 30 days of signing up, and the CT scan should ideally be done the same day, or within 45 days after the blood test. The study will gather information on participants' medical history and lifestyle to understand more about lung cancer risks.
- Study duration: Minimum 24 months
