New tool aims to simplify tough choices for lung cancer patients

NCT ID NCT05191485

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 aims to create a decision aid for people with lung adenocarcinoma who need to decide whether to have molecular testing after surgery. Researchers will interview patients, family members, and doctors to understand what information is needed. The final tool will be tested with 190 participants to see if it helps patients and doctors make shared decisions.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a tool to help patients and doctors make more informed decisions about molecular testing after lung cancer surgery.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study focused on developing and testing a decision aid, not on treatment outcomes. The tool may not change patient decisions or improve health results.

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Non-random purposive sampling will be used to select key respondents to participate in in-depth interviews. Snowball sampling, where potential participants are asked to identify others who may be willing to participate, as well as convenience sampling, will be utilized. For patients, we will aim for diversity regarding age, sex, education level, and annual household income. For other stakeholders (including thoracic surgeons, nurses, psychoanalysts, hospital administrators, molecular testing company staff, and insurance company staff), the representativeness in region, seniority, position, and attitude toward both molecular testing and SDM will be considered.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.
