DNA Repair and Genetic Susceptibility to Lung Cancer

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to help us better understand the cellular changes that may lead to the development of lung cancer. We want to compare people with a second primary lung cancer with those who have only a first primary lung cancer. We hope to use the information obtained in this study as the basis for future studies and will not regard the results from this study as final.

We will analyze your blood cells and DNA to measure the changes in several genes that we believe may be involved in lung cancer. We also want to evaluate the capacity for your DNA to repair itself.

Conditions

  • Lung Cancer
  • Single Primary Lung Cancer
  • Second Primary Lung Cancer

Interventions

OTHER

Blood draw and Questionnaires

Pt will have three green top tubes of blood drawn. The questionnaire will be filled out by the study subject. This may be completed at home and mailed in a provided stamped addressed envelope if the patient prefer, or obtained by phone interview with a research assistant.
