First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to see if telling patients and their doctors about calcium buildup in heart arteries (found on lung cancer scans) would lower the chance of death, heart attack, or stroke. It was designed for adults without known heart disease who had a lung scan showing significant calcium. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling anyone, so no results are available.
