Can regular scans save Smokers' lives? major trial launches
NCT ID NCT07478757
Summary
This study aims to find out if regular low-dose CT scans can help detect lung cancer early in people at high risk due to smoking. It will enroll 15,000 current or former heavy smokers in Hong Kong, randomly assigning half to receive scans and half to receive usual care, and follow them for 10 years. The main goal is to see if the scans lead to fewer deaths from lung cancer by catching the disease at an earlier, more treatable stage.
