Evaluating the Pulmonary Nodule With Imaging and Biomarkers

NCT01739881 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 60

Last updated 2012-12-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study aims to determine if there are defining EBUS and confocal endoscopy features as well as exhaled alveolar gas VOC that can discriminate malignant pulmonary nodules or masses from benign etiology, thereby obviating unnecessary thoracotomy. Directly sampled alveolar gas VOC from patients with lung cancer will be compared against exhaled breath VOC for signature compounds that may complement CT in screening the population at risk.
