About this trial
This is an observational clinical trial, aiming to evaluate the efficacy of the SPOTMAS LUNG (SML) test compared to Low dose CTScan (LDCT)/None contrast CTScan (NCCT) in two distinct risk populations:
* Cohort A: To demonstrate that SML is concordant with LDCT/NCCT in general population lung cancer screening, including low-risk (LRs0-1-2), intermediate-risk (LRs3), and high-risk (LRs4) groups. * Cohort B: To validate the sensitivity and specificity of SML in the high-risk group (LRs4).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Volunteers (participants) aged 50-80 years at the time of consent.
50% smokers with a smoking history of 20 pack-years who currently smoke or have quit within the past 15 years.
50% never-smokers or light smokers (< 20 pack-years or quit > 15 years) who are first- or second-degree relatives of LC patients.
Willing to undergo LDCT/NCCT of the chest for lung cancer screening.
Disqualifiers
Subject has a health problem that substantially limits life expectancy and/or the ability or willingness to have curative lung surgery.
Subject is undergoing CECT for investigation of highly suspicious symptoms for lung cancer.
Pre-existing or history of lung cancer.
History of any malignancy (subjects who have undergone surgical removal of skin squamous cell cancer may be enrolled provided the procedure was completed at least 12 months prior to the date of provision of informed consent for the study).
Trial population
Cohort A: Patients visit the hospital and are screened according to inclusion/exclusion criteria and are indicated for routine LDCT or NCCT (Enrollment Date D1, results unknown). Cohort B: Patients visit the hospital and are screened according to inclusion/exclusion criteria and have LDCT or NCCT or CECT results of Lung-RADS 4, valid within 30 days up to the study enrollment date.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
The overall objective of this study is to assess the performance of SPOT-MAS LUNG (SML) in two different scenarios: lung cancer screening (Cohort A) and lung cancer diagnosis (Cohort B).
Cohort A • Characteristics: Screening population, including low-risk (LRs0-1-2), intermediate-risk (LRs3), and high-risk (LRs4) patients, taken 10mL blood for SML test. Cohort B • Characteristics: High-risk patients (LRs 4), taken 10mL blood for SML test.
Secondary outcomes
Cohort A: To demonstrate that SML is concordant with LDCT/NCCT in the screening population. Cohort B: To assess the specificity and sensitivity of SML in detecting LC in patients with LRs4.
Cohort A: The objective of the study is to demonstrate that SML and LDCT have a high level of agreement, with a Cohen's Kappa coefficient greater than 0.81. * Endpoint: The level of agreement between SML and LDCT/NCCT. Cohort B: In a previous case-control study, SML demonstrated a specificity of 92% and a sensitivity of 90% \[9\]. Thus, this study will be considered successful if the lower-bound of the two-sided 95% Wilson CI of SM for LC sensitivity exceeds 80% and the lower-bound of the two-sided 95% Wilson CI of SM for LC specificity exceeds 82%. * Endpoint: Specificity and sensitivity of SML.
