Scientists map the hidden world of bacteria in lung cancer
NCT ID NCT03068663
Summary
This study aims to understand the types of bacteria living in the lungs, airways, and gut of people with non-small cell lung cancer. Researchers will compare samples from 40 patients, half of whom receive chemotherapy before surgery and half who have surgery alone. The goal is to see if changes in these bacteria are linked to cancer, which could help design future studies using probiotics or dietary changes to improve treatment.
