Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Prospective, observational cohort study of patients undergoing surgical resection for low dose CT (LDCT) screen-detected lung cancer (detected through the SUMMIT study- ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03934866/ lung screening programmes), in which translational research is a fundamental aspect.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The ASCENT study seeks to examine the genomic signatures of screen-detected cancers, in order to categorise the biological behaviour of such lesions and correlate this against non-invasive biological and radiological parameters. From these data, the plan is to explore strategies to characterise LDCT-detected cancers through non-invasive means, which the researchers believe may prove key in mitigating potential screening-associated harms.
