About this trial

This is a single-armed screening research study which screens immediate family member of lung cancer patients with a driver mutation to see if lung cancer can be inherited and whether researchers can find lung cancer early. Immediate family members of lung cancer patients will be 40-80 years old and screened using a low dose CT scan.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Current diagnosis of lung cancer with a driver mutation.

Known driver mutation (e.g. via NGS, PCR, IHC, FISH, RT-PCR etc.)

Able and willing to give informed consent.

Able and willing to complete the screening questionnaire.

Disqualifiers

There are no exclusion criteria for Cohort A.

Age 40 - 80.

Must have a first degree relative (mother, father, sibling, biological child) eligible for Cohort A. Note: Multiple first degree relatives of a Cohort A eligible participant may be approached for participation into the trial.

Smoked < 20 pack years; a. Pack years = numbers of packs per day × number of years smoked; b. One pack year is the equivalent of smoking an average of 20 cigarettes (1 pack) per day for a year.
