New blood test may predict lung surgery risks
NCT ID NCT07359885
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study aims to see if a blood test, taken before lung cancer surgery, can predict which patients will develop serious lung complications afterward. Researchers will analyze immune cells and proteins in the blood of 100 adults undergoing lung surgery. If the test works, it could help doctors take early steps to prevent complications.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- blood test (immune cell and protein analysis)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a simple blood test that helps doctors identify patients at high risk of lung complications after surgery, allowing for better preventive care.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study (100 participants) that has not yet started recruiting. The test is still being developed and may not prove accurate enough for routine use.
