500 lung cancer patients to help map asian genetic subtypes
NCT ID NCT04025515
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study collects and analyzes lung cancer tissue samples from 500 patients in Asia to find out which genetic changes are most common. The goal is to better understand the disease in the local population. Participants must have a tissue sample available and be healthy enough for potential future trials, but no new treatment is given as part of this study.
