NCT ID NCT06225414
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether giving Hispanic/Latinx patients educational materials, financial navigation help, and reminders could increase lung cancer screening with low-dose CT scans. 60 eligible adults aged 50-80 with a smoking history took part. The goal was to see if these simple supports help more people get screened early.
