Summary

This study evaluates whether EC treatment is effective in delaying the progression of high-grade lung lesion(s) to invasive lung cancer. Participants will be randomised to receive either electrocautery (EC) treatment with bronchoscopy surveillance (=intervention), or bronchoscopy surveillance alone (=control) in a 2:1 ratio.

Conditions

  • Lung Cancer Squamous Cell

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Electrocautery Ablation (EC)

For the purposes of the trial, one round of EC treatment consists of two individual EC treatments with a post-EC bronchoscopy in between to check for a response to the 1st EC treatment. Within each round, the second EC treatment will only be administered if the post-treatment bronchoscopy confirms presence of persistent high grade disease. Patients in the intervention arm will receive up to three rounds of EC treatment (no more than one round annually) to all their HGLs identified at baseline.
