This study tests whether a personalized letter and proactive phone calls can help veterans with a newly diagnosed lung nodule quit smoking. The program uses the diagnosis as a 'teachable moment' to motivate quitting. Researchers will compare how many veterans use cessation servic…

This study compares a robotic bronchoscopy system (Ion) to a manual one (superDimension) for diagnosing lung nodules. About 354 adults with suspicious lung nodules will be randomly assigned to one of the two devices. The main goal is to see which device yields a correct diagnosis…

This study is testing whether a blood test called Nodify XL2 can help doctors decide how to manage lung nodules that have a low to moderate chance of being cancer. About 2,000 adults with solid lung nodules between 8 and 30 mm are taking part. The goal is to see if using the test…

This study compares two robotic platforms, DaVinci Xi and Versius, used in lung surgery to remove tumors or nodules. Researchers want to see if one leads to better recovery, fewer complications, or lower costs. About 150 patients having robotic lung surgery will answer quality-of…

This study aims to see if a simple, non-invasive breathing test can accurately measure the acidity (pH) in the airways, which is often abnormal in lung diseases. Researchers will compare results from this breath test with standard methods in 150 healthy volunteers and people with…

This study compares two advanced bronchoscopy techniques—robotic assisted bronchoscopy and electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy—to see which one more accurately diagnoses lung lesions. About 440 adults scheduled for a lung biopsy will be randomly assigned to one method. The ma…

This study watches 200 people with lung, gut, or hormone diseases over time using special brain scans (PET). It aims to see how these diseases change brain activity and whether those changes can predict tumor return, spread, or survival. No new treatment is tested—just observatio…
