About this trial

The goal of the NIMBLE study is to evaluate blood-based biomarkers for lung cancer risk prediction in patients referred with a lung nodule.

Each blood biomarker will be evaluated for descriminating malignant from benign lung nodules alone and in combination with other blood biomarkers, patient characteristics and radiological features.
