Summary
This study collected blood samples from 109 people with and without lung cancer to develop a blood test called OncoSweep Lung Spotlight. The test looks for genetic and other signals in the blood that might indicate lung cancer. Researchers hope this could lead to a simple, non-invasive way to help detect lung cancer earlier.
