Could a bronchial wash detect lung cancer mutations faster?

NCT ID NCT06228508

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study investigates whether a liquid biopsy taken from the airways during a bronchoscopy can help diagnose lung cancer and identify genetic mutations. The approach aims to be less invasive and faster than traditional tissue biopsies. Researchers will compare the accuracy of this bronchial fluid test against standard methods in adults undergoing bronchoscopy for suspected or known lung cancer.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Bronchial liquid biopsy (ctDNA and ctRNA) collected during bronchoscopy
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to faster, less invasive molecular testing for lung cancer, potentially improving personalized treatment decisions.
What could go wrong
The test's sensitivity may be limited, and it might not replace traditional biopsies for all patients. The study is relatively small and early-stage.
