Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

A Study to evaluate the utility of the ProLung Test as an adjunct to CT scan in the diagnosis of lung cancer.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    This Study will assess the stability of the ProLung Test classification algorithm when used as an adjunct to CT scan. This Study will assess whether there are any potential safety concerns of the ProLung Test when used to evaluate patients with a positive CT scan for lung cancer.

    Arms and Interventions

    Arm Intervention/Treatment
    Patients Suspicious for Lung Cancer

    Subjects are symptomatic of lung cancer and have one or more lung nodules or lung masses suspicious for lung cancer.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. ProLung Test utility in lung cancer [date of conclusive diagnosis]

      This Study will assess the stability of the ProLung Test classification algorithm when used as an adjunct to CT scan to determine whether it is appropriate to be used in a pivotal study.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Safety and Tolerability of the ProLung Test [within 30 minutes of the ProLung Test]

      This Study will assess whether there are any potential safety concerns of the ProLung Test when used to evaluate patients with a positive CT scan for lung cancer.

    Exclusion Criteria:

    • Subjects who meet one or more of the following criteria may not be enrolled in this

    Study:

    • Subject with significant systemic diseases including uncontrolled diabetes, severe heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, myocardial infarction and/or auto-immune conditions within the prior 3 (three) months.

    • Subject taking systemic corticosteroid medication (except for inhaled) within 14 days prior to measurement session.

    • Subject has had an invasive medical procedure that involves the thoracic cavity within 30 days prior to the measurement session.

    • Subject who currently abuses alcohol or drugs.

    • Subject presents with an anomalous physical or anatomical condition that precludes measurement.

    • Subject will have undergone unusually strenuous exercise within 24 hours prior to measurement session.

    • Subject who has, in the Principal Investigator's opinion, any medical condition or other circumstance that would prevent completion of this Study or interfere with analysis of the Study results.
