Brief Summary

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

Validation of biomolecular markers in the circulation and radiomic features are the focus of this project.The aim is to assess the role of molecular and cellular biomarkers (exosomes antigens, Circulating tumor cells - CTCs, panel of mutations in circulating free DNA) and radiomic signature, as complementary to assist early detection of lung cancer by LDCT.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

cancer patients (clinical stage I and II) +controls

70 lung cancer patients (clinical stage I and II) diagnosed outside screening and candidates to surgical resection at Humanitas Hospital, and 70 controls with benign nodules. Cancer patients will undergo blood collection before and at 4 months after surgical resection. Blood will be used for CTC analysis, exosome antigens and circulating free DNA (cfDNA) mutational analysis.

No interventions assigned to this group

prospective screening cohort of high risk individuals

a prospective screening cohort of high risk individuals enrolled at Humanitas Hospital (1000) will allow to recruit 50 patients with screening detected lung cancer and a large number of negative controls. Analysis of CTC, exosome antigens and cfDNA mutation profile will be performed.

LDCT (Low Dose CT)

Intervention Type OTHER

validate the role of non-invasive molecular and cellular biomarkers and combined radiomic signature, as complementary tools to assist early detection of lung cancer by LDCT using bioinformatic techniques for the integration of the results

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Age ≥ 55 years old and exposure to smoking more than 30 packs-year; which corresponds to 6-year risk of lung cancer, calculated according to the plco score (≥ 2%).
* Smoker or former smoker Former smokers must have ceased smoking within the 15 years prior to enrollment in the study.
* Absence of symptoms of lung cancer such as worsening of cough, hoarseness, hemoptysis and weight loss.

Exclusion Criteria

* Previous diagnosis of lung cancer.
* Positive extrapulmonary cancer history in the last 5 years (excluding in situ tumors or skin epidermoid tumor).
* Performing a chest CT scan in the last 18 months.
* Severe lung or extrapulmonary diseases that may preclude or invalidate appropriate therapy in case of diagnosis of malignant pulmonary neoplasia.
