Lung Cancer Screening of Family Members of Patients With Mutation-Driven Lung Cancer
This is a single-armed screening research study which screens immediate family member of lung cancer patients with a driver mutation to see if lung cancer can be inherited and whether researchers can find lung cancer early. Immediate family members of lung cancer patients will be 40-80 years old and screened using a low dose CT scan.
• Current diagnosis of lung cancer with a driver mutation.
• Known driver mutation (e.g. via NGS, PCR, IHC, FISH, RT-PCR etc.)
• Able and willing to give informed consent.
• Able and willing to complete the screening questionnaire.
⁃ Cohort A:
• Age 40 - 80.
• Must have a first degree relative (mother, father, sibling, biological child) eligible for Cohort A. Note: Multiple first degree relatives of a Cohort A eligible participant may be approached for participation into the trial.
• Smoked \< 20 pack years; a. Pack years = numbers of packs per day × number of years smoked; b. One pack year is the equivalent of smoking an average of 20 cigarettes (1 pack) per day for a year.
• Be able to undergo a low dose chest CT scan.
• If an upper respiratory infection (pneumonia, COVID19, flu, etc.) occurred in the last 3 months, this infection must have resolved by time of enrollment.
• Able and willing to provide informed consent.
• Able and willing to comply with the protocol requirements
⁃ Cohort B:
