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.
