NCT ID NCT07626177
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how different lung cancer screening habits (like too much, too little, or just right) affect whether the cancer is caught early. About 5,390 newly diagnosed lung cancer patients will share their medical history and screening records. The goal is to find the best screening approach to catch lung cancer when it's most treatable.
