NCT ID NCT04968548
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is developing a new blood test called Lung EpiCheck® to find lung cancer early in people at high risk, like heavy smokers. Researchers will collect blood samples and medical information from 5,000 participants to see how accurate the test is. The goal is to create a simple, non-invasive screening tool that could catch lung cancer sooner, when it's easier to treat.
