First seen Feb 02, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 12 times

Summary

This study compares two ways of taking tissue samples from lung cancer patients to see which method gives better material for genetic testing. About 250 adults with suspected lung cancer will be randomly assigned to receive either a standard needle biopsy or a newer freezing technique. The goal is to find out which approach provides enough high-quality tissue to guide personalized treatment decisions.
