Early Diagnosis of Pulmonary Nodules

February 28, 2018 updated by: Integrated Diagnostics

Early Diagnosis of Pulmonary Nodules Using A Plasma Proteomic Classifier, Protocol Number 1001-12

This study is intended to determine the positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of the multiprotein classifier based on the observed study prevalence of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) in the study participants.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

Patients must present with previously non-diagnosed lung nodules as found on CT. There is no change to the typical standard of care that any of the investigating physicians and/or centers provide the patients enrolled in this study. The data from this study will not be used to diagnose cancer nor be used to influence treatment decisions for the study participants.

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Subject undergoing evaluation for a lung nodule by a pulmonologist in a pulmonary or chest clinic, and/or by a thoracic surgeon at the time of enrollment

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age ≥ 40 years
  • Smoking history: Never, Former, Current
  • Subject undergoing diagnostic evaluation for a lung nodule
  • Subject undergoing evaluation for a lung nodule by a pulmonologist, and/or by a thoracic surgeon
  • Baseline CT scan identifying lung nodule performed within 60 days of subject enrollment

  • A prior CT scan is available that previously identifies the same lung nodule under consideration for study inclusion on the most current CT scan; AND the prior CT scan was performed more than 60 days before the current CT scan, irrespective of the candidate nodule's radiographic characterization such as size, density or appearance
  • Current diagnosis of any cancer
  • Prior diagnosis of any cancer within 2 years of lung nodule detection, except for non-melanoma skin cancer
  • Administration of blood products, e.g. packed red blood cells, fresh frozen plasma, or platelets, within 30 days of subject enrollment
